Anyone who think all prisoners can be rehabilitated please read the story on the Belgian monster who kidnapped and raped 6 girls, allowing four of them to starve to death.

He has applied for parole on licence (in Belgium a lifer can apply for release after 15 years), but his own MOTHER contacted the court on hearing her son's application for parole, stating: "This is a repeat offender in his soul, as he has already proved throughout his life."

Some can be rehabilitated but those are for whom a prison sentence was something they never thought they would undergo, but for career criminals a prison sentence is something they know will happen sooner or later and accept it as such.

38Days added on for holding a fellow prisoner hostage... That's a joke in it self.

I read a great post on Facebook saying we should put pensioners in prison and criminals in old people's homes. That way pensioner will have:

24/7 hours care and supervision

Workshops,

tvs

entertainment consols

gardens and access to gym

Allowed out of there cells for hours each day

3 meals a day plus many choices

Easy access to drugs to help the days go by

Private visitation rooms

There fore criminals are left with:

Locked in dirty rooms 24-7

miss treated and abused

No heat water and food on odd occasion

Carers who don't give a toss about them

And plenty more but you get the jist lol

The prison sentence is the punishment, the actual stay in prison is supposed to be used to rehabilitate so that the person leaves prison with a purpose and doesn't re-offend.

It works with some, but with others its a complete waste of time, the sad thing is that so much time is taken up trying to control the idiots that the ones who do want to change their lives are not given enough of a chance ...

Some can never be rehabilitated due to it being a 'way of life' rather than a choice of behaviour.

"Trouble is they get out, no decent jobs, so no money, so return to crime for easy money."

Very true, the tick-box on an application form thats askes 'do you have a criminal record' is usually as far as most employers go before slinging the form. Most offences are wiped after 24 months, but a prison sentence of 5 yrs or more is on your record for life. So doing something stupid at 18 could stay with you for the rest of your life. (not saying thats wrong, just think it needs a re-think).

Right bit of clarity here re rehabilitation there is government aim to get more folk on community programmes aka probation service to manage offenders sad part of this is like most things here cutbacks have resulted in loss of lots of probation staff so puts more strain on those left to manage more folk Square peg round hole comes to mind.

What identifies a society is not how affluent or powerful it is but how it treats the people on the margins of that society the elderly the infirm the disabled the insane and yes its prisoners. Retribution justice is proven to be useless and a sophisticated society must advocate a rehabilitation ethos. People can change and if just a handful are redeemed the process is morally and fiscally sound

I'm not sure what people expected from this programme - sweet, innocent kids just a bit down on their luck and ready to overcome everything just for the want of a kindly word or a bit of guidance.

Shock horror, it's a mean and nasty world at times, and prisons house some mean, nasty people.

If you looked at prisons in any country or at any time in history you'd find the same mixture of damaged, stupid idiots full of false bravado.

Don't forget that this is a "reality" show and is designed to shock and therefore is targeted to show the biggest idiots of the lot.

Will differ on the detroux point..

some will wear rose tinted spectacles on any subject and believe what they want to hear to support that belief..

part of the problem is the prison places are being used as mental health wards and to send a message that the government are tough on crime by banging up none tv license payers etc..

140,000 people were given a criminal record last year for not paying their licence. yet you can steal goods worth £200, or cause £500 worth of criminal damage and be handed a fixed penalty notice by the police.

The website I got it from (Daily Mail) says ..... The law as it stands allows TV Licence inspectors to take you to court if they discover you watching your TV without a licence - even if you agree to pay on the spot.

According to google what was shown wasn't the worst that happened when filming,

"Series director and producer Lee Phillips said: “The most horrendous incidents we saw won’t be shown, either because of sensitivity or because they are still going through the judicial process.

“Those incidents were very serious — they include the attempted murder of a prison officer who was stabbed in the face 20-plus"

Shocking!

OMG....that is awful... "

I doubt it's that unusual.

Just as an example, one of the chief troublemakers was called Caspean.

This isn't the first time I've noticed, and mentioned here, that people with unusually spelled given names find themselves in difficult situations.

Does having the name attract trouble or do people with unusual names have, for want of a better phrase, a bit of a problem?

I dunno, but it seems to be the case.

"Anyone who think all prisoners can be rehabilitated please read the story on the Belgian monster who kidnapped and raped 6 girls, allowing four of them to starve to death.

He has applied for parole on licence (in Belgium a lifer can apply for release after 15 years), but his own MOTHER contacted the court on hearing her son's application for parole, stating: "This is a repeat offender in his soul, as he has already proved throughout his life."

Some can be rehabilitated but those are for whom a prison sentence was something they never thought they would undergo, but for career criminals a prison sentence is something they know will happen sooner or later and accept it as such.

using detroux as an example or a guideline on rehabilitation is rather loading the debate to one side..

the fact that he can apply for parole after 4 murders and the rest of his crimes is a bit bizarre..

not all will ever be rehabilitated, would like the government to take it seriously as long term both financially and for further victims of crime it has to be better than just locking them down..

I don't believe I was loading the debate. My point was that some people think all prisoners can be rehabilitated and the fact remains is that some can't, and it is these misguided believers in turning convicts into model citizens who really need to get to grip with the reality that releasing supposedly reformed characters back into society is flawed and dangerous.

Will differ on the detroux point..

some will wear rose tinted spectacles on any subject and believe what they want to hear to support that belief..

part of the problem is the prison places are being used as mental health wards and to send a message that the government are tough on crime by banging up none tv license payers etc..

"

Some people have absolutely no idea about the criminal justice system other than what they read in the papers, see in the news and in programmes such as this.

Most of the lock em up and throw away the key brigade are the most ill informed and ignorant of all. The only thing these people have a achieved is give us a flawed, pointless criminal justice system that does nothing to reduce crime.

But it makes them feel so much better about themselves that they don't care that the evidence fails to support their misconceptions.

Both of my sons have christian names that are not spelt in the traditional manner....both are young professionals who have fantastic jobs and earn salaries that most men of twice their age would love to earn....

So, means very little in reality.

I'm surprised at some of the opinions posted on this thread. I believe, as the mental health worker said in the programme, that no-one is born evil. We're all born into the world the same. Its life experiences that make us who we are. I'm not using that as an excuse for those who commit crime. I'm just pointing out that we should thank our lucky stars that we've been brought up the right way. Some of those lads in there don't know any different. They've not been shown how to behave; and yet some people on here think they should be 'exterminated!'. That lad who had mental health problems saw his dad murdered when he was six. How does that affect the mind of a six year old? I wish people showed a bit more understanding, and didnt jump on the bandwagon of 'letting them all rot in jail'. We're all human beings, and it's society's fault as a whole that there are so many criminals. We should all take responsibilty for this, and try and encourage rehabilitation of these offenders.
