My mom is a lawyer, And she always talk about this... She says (among many other things) that in every criminal system must exist the characteristic of being preventive, rehabilitating, re-educating and reformer of the offender, to return it to the society as a useful citizen after having complied with the sentence interposed...
That aspect (unfortunately) is not taken into account in many countries, including mine: VENEZUELA... Passing those "details" over, has a very expensive price; Such as partial or complete dysfunctionality of the penal system... I really do not know if it can serve you as a breath, but it's no secret that Venezuela is one of the most dangerous countries in the world today ... And how do we get there? FOR THE COMPLETE NEGLIGENCE OF OUR LEGAL-PENAL SYSTEM :
- THE MAXIMUM CONVICTION FOR ANY CRIME (INCLUDING MURDER) IS 30 YEARS... And that, if they manage to catch the guilty...
- BY BEING SO CUT THE CONDEMNS, AND THE REJECTIVITY IS NOT REHABILITATED, WHEN LEAVING THE JAIL, REJOINS ...
THE CYCLE OF NEVER END ...
GREETINGS FROM HERE....
I LIKE so much YOUR POST !!...
