Assuming that young, petty lawbreakers may be deterred from braking laws, simply by introducing the possibility of a public flogging, has some flaws to it. Jacoby neglected to bring up, what I would call the perfect argument to this topic. People who already intentionally commit crimes in today’s American society are fully aware of the possible repercussions for their actions. Despite this knowledge they continue to commit crimes that could land them in jail. I could argue that even more crime could result in effect to fewer prisonable offences and more humane forms of corporal punishment.
Free will or the ability to make rational choice is a big part of this bill. Punishment is another principle that is covered in this bill. The principle of punishment is to deter others who might fallow suet and choose to violate the laws. Alongside of punishment there is the knowledge of right and wrong, an inherent trait. Society will benefit from this bill keeping the offenders out of the public area and locked up.
Only 52,348 were Released from federal prison, the other 683,106 (92.9%), were released from state prisons. A Justice Department Bureau of Justice Statistics study of 272,111 state prisoners Released in 1994 found that two-thirds of prisoners are rearrested within three years After release, these offenders generate; *
Right now on the other side of this door somebody is going to jail, be it just or unjust.They’re going to be booked and processed into the custody, and into the control of lawenforcement; by a show of hands, how many of you know someone who is locked up? 1. According to Sheriff Leroy Baca, of The Los Angeles County Sheriff Department, in an article released in 2012, by the “Homeland Security Association,” he states that; “Los Angeles Sheriff’s Dept. alone manages the nation's largest jail system, supervising more than 20,000 prisoners at any given time.” 2. According to California Department of Correction and Rehabilitation “2012 Adult Population Projections,” CDCR supervises more than 160,000 in 2003 to 135,238 prisoners during 2012, for the State of California.
It's difficult to judge how effective Virginia's system is when it comes to juveniles punished as adults, because no state agency keeps track of how these cases turn out. The Virginia State Crime Commission is trying to fill that knowledge gap. In its preliminary study, the commission found that most teenagers sent to adult prison in Virginia end up there because of robbery convictions. An earlier study conducted by an advocacy group asserts that a disproportionate number of those teens are black. One Virginia teenager who served adult time for a carjacking in which no one was injured -- and who spent most of his sentence in the Red Onion supermax prison in Wise County -- bucked the trend documented
Juveniles were responsible for 16% of the violent crimes and 26% of all the property crimes that were on record throughout the United States. The statistic report shows that the arrest rate for juveniles who were charged with murder is at a rate of 3.8 per 100, 000 juveniles that were arrested in 2008.” The increase in drug offenses and simple assaults According to "Juvenile Justice Bulletin" (2008), “The report lists statistics for the juvenile drug abuse violations in 1994, 2007, and 2008. During the different years listed, the drug abuse violations continue to decrease. The report shows that the drug abuse violations resulted in 180,100 juvenile arrests.” “Simple assaults included in the chart were at zero reported; however, looking under the other assaults in the report there were 18% of the arrests reported to be
I think in some ways its and advantage because it will help place habitual or serious offenders out of the community and into some other placement to get treatment. i think it can become a problem or have disadvantages like when it discussed how juveniles were executed and put to the death penalty for their crimes and I'd have to agree with it being against the 8th amendment on unuasl and cruel
With the peak age of juvenile incarceration being 16 for females and 17 for males (Drerup 1), it is essential for these children to learn at the youngest possible age that crime and drugs do not pay. Of the _______________________ juveniles detained in the justice system in the year 2000, 56% of boys and 40% of girls tested positive for substance use (Chassin 2); not to mention more than half of the admissions in drug treatment facilities were from males who had been incarcerated as juveniles, along with 39% of females (Chassin 2). Substance dependence is one of the “core” causes of juvenile incarceration, whether it is through theft to obtain money for drugs or alcohol, or violence because of a drug induced outburst. It has been noted that an estimated 500-1,200 adolescents are court ordered to incarceration at any one facility per year, with an annual recidivism rate of approximately 35% (Stein 2). Simply placing juveniles in a prison-like setting and putting the facts of a substance dependence problem on the back burner is obviously not working.
