> “You can judge a society by how well it treats its prisoners”. - Fyodor Dostoevsky He wasn't wrong. I'm in the UK and we seem to straddle the fence between a European "rehabilitation first" and US "punishment first" approach which is irritating as what we get is broken. Study after study have shown that treating prisoners humanely while genuinely trying to rehabilitate them has the best outcome on recidivism and yet because politician's fear the media spinning the "soft on crime" line we end up with ever more draconian mandatory sentences, over crowded prisons and a system on the edge of systemic collapse. We should be better than this.
