does the correctional system benefit society
The media highlights extremely brutal crimes to force society into the mentality of âget tough on crimeâ making prison the âgo-toâ sentence. The correctional system needs to move away from the âget tough on crimeâ policy that forces many nonviolent offenders to serve mandatory prison sentences.hen discussing the injustices inflicted upon nonviolent offenders in our countryâs correctional system, another issue that arises is respect. Every individual needs to be respected and this respect for the individual is a theme within the Pell Program.
