[peanutbutterbruv]

I am a Londoner living in Portugal. Portugal has higher absolute and relative poverty and far higher immigration and little gang culture. What it hasn't had is a break down of the family. I'm not talking about divorce but the ability of grandmothers, aunts and cousins live close by and be involved in childrearing.

_If_ a person is a repeat violent offender, the _only_ way to keep them from hurting people is incarceration. It's not about punishment. It's about removing them from society.

I haven't believed in the criminal justice system since 2006, my dad was involved in a car accident that left the other driver dead and he was taken to court for causing death by dangerous driving. The accident in question occured on a crossroads in a 30mph speed zone while my dad was driving a vehicle restricted to 50 mph and didn't have seatbelts, not to mention he was training another driver on a new delivery route he had never driven before, the other car was found to have been traveling at roughly That morning my mum went to the crashsite and took pictures including the giveway sign that was completely covered by overgrown hedges. The next day the hedges where cut and the prosecution pushed that it was clear and my dad was just oblivious to it, when we supplied the pictures clearly showing it as overgrown with the morning news paper the prosecution tried to suggest that we had in someway falsified the paper? When we argued that my dad was under the speed limit due to the tire track analysis the prosecution argued that there was a 5-10 mph room for error, his defence pointed out that the other driver was going 120mph we were told/scolded by the judge for "speaking ill of the dead" and was then told my dad was acting like a sociopath for showing no emotion during the trail. The accident had left my dad emotionally catatonic, he barley spoke who responded to anyone. He didn't smile for nearly 4 years after, I only bring this up because despite the judges clear disdain for my dad the trail was set back 4 separate occasions because the wife of the other driver kept using the insurance money to go on holiday, and not peaceful countryside holidays. Magaluf. Corfu. Ibiza and another party destination I can't remember of the top of my head. But when our defence pointed out that after 3 months of delays that in another 3 months the court case would have to be thrown out to a change in the laws the judge once again scolded them for "not caring for the "victims" family" and proceeded to tell us that the case would be brought against him again however instead of facing a driving ban and hefty fine my dad would be looking at 4 years in prison. The legal system had no care for my dad one of the kindest men I've ever seen who to this day is still affected by the fact he was involved in another man's death. All they wanted was another "win" but hey it's not like it destroyed an entire family just for the sake of their own self worth

A friend of mine ended up teaching in prison. He met a lad we both taught when we both worked in the same state school. He was in for murder. I asked if he was remorseful about what happened. My friend said the lad said he thought it was unfair that he got sent down for just doing one thing. That's the message kids who push the boundaries get from schools. Second chance after second chance after fresh start etc.

If you can’t be honest in the diagnosis then you can’t prescribe the proper cure.

[timfallon]

As an ex police officer (so glad i left) I can say with certainty that the vast majority of crime is committed by a tiny number of repeat offenders.
Lock them in a dark pit as cheaply as possible and never release them, job done.
These repeat offenders are the 'bad boys' that dozy women get impregnated by the offspring of which become the next generation of offenders.

[nwsdtdl]

Denzel Washington said it best- if you don’t find a father in your home, you will find a father in the streets. We have to give these kids options to find safety, tranquility and positive role models after the school bell rings. So many go to an empty home and end up enthralled by the streets.

The idea that serial killers can eventually get parole is shocking. Colin Pitchfork anyone?

[FergusWalsh-dzmq]

NO NO NO to remove these people FROM society is first and foremost the purpose of incarceration.

[unbreakable]

This is how I feel about crime and criminals: "If a person needs a reason to be honest, he can't be trusted." -- Nietzsche

Madison said a constitutional republic will only survive while the people have virtue.

[TheClazabaza]

I could have listened to Wendy for days, what a fascinating glimpse into the system. I'm so glad she spoke about the importance of empathy and the difference between empathy and sympathy; listening to someone who has spent their entire working life in a specific field is like nothing else, there is such a wealth of experience and knowledge there. Thank you.

How much does the rise in knife crimes coincide with the UK's immigration policies?

[mike]

She said, I don’t want to focus on a particular ethnic or religious sector. Me: ok, you’re taking about blacks and muslims.
They come from “difficult homes”. Me: kids aren’t disciplined, taught manners and forced to value education.
We haven’t taken the care to include them. Me: They weren’t disciplined properly by parents and schools

[davidmasner]

"..Crime is Not to punish wrongdoers." ...She actually says this!! ..As if punishing people for killing/robbing would be wrong on moral grounds. Thanks for doing this guys. I now see exactly why you are going down the tubes.

[bell]

Lack of education does not cause criminality. Both are caused by an inability to control your impulses and emotions, also being unable to delay gratification.

[Anne_Onymous]

I've always felt like jails/prisons should be divided into 2 parts: A rehabilitation side where they get classes, counseling, jobs, help preparing for release, chances to earn early release, etc... And the other side for inmates that refuse to behave or participate on the rehab side. Because not everyone wants to rehabilitate. It's up to them and their actions.
We'll see if this vid changes my mind on anything

[sempersuffragium]

As a law student in Slovenia, which is a fairly well ordered country, I would still consider the British justice system the envy of the World, and it pains me to see it tainted by all the thought policing, that's going on now

[roland]

"Did they share certain characteristics" Let's quickly skirt around this question
