Question:

A weakness of custodial sentencing?

Author: (Pippa) Pippa Holloway



Answer:

-May learn to become better offenders -Prisoners may learn new techniques, like smuggling and acquiring criminal contacts, of how to commit crimes from more experienced and older prisoners within the system -Could consequently undermine any attempt to rehabilitate prisoners and make them more likely to reoffend -Therefore, suggesting the prisoners may not be an effective way of lowering recidivism rates
