Very interesting comment. I would ask to compare the results to the US justice system but that’s an incredibly low bar. Do you have any insight into the results vs one of their peers who do not have this particular facet of the justice system? Or is there any data that shows if this works better than without it? Instinctually it would seem like it’s better but if there’s any data behind it I would love to read more.
Re: your comment on the life sentence without parole. I agree and I did not mean to insinuate that this should be a thing. I was more saying that there could be a minimum sentence for serious crimes and say you get 20 years but that means 20 minimum and release only if “rehabilitated”. Not “20” with parole in half that. I guess it’s just a matter of semantics but if it’s 20 but possibility to get out in half it should just be called 10 with release only possible after that if “rehabilitated”.
