BCJ 2002 Unit VI

I have to respond to my classmates discussion board they wrote

Reoffending is always in the ball of the offender’s court. They are left with the decision making. There can be all kinds of access to multiple resources and programs but the choice to reoffend rests solely in the individual. So I don’t know how you can effectively measure recidivism. I guess we can start with following some of the programs that promote education and job placement and compare that to the people who recommit but even then a success story in those areas can quickly change for the worse based on bad decision making in a brief instance. Counseling could be way of offering an outlet for offenders in the hopes catching the few who may feel tempted to exercise bad choices. I think the best success has been with faith based initiates. Offenders who practice religion or who join a fellowship of like-minded followers tends to help them be accountable to themselves.

I have to answer this discussion board question Unit VII

Once upon a time, most people thought that once someone was locked up they no longer had any rights. What rights do prisoners have and should they have them? What does the US Constitution say about prisoner’s rights?

This is the essay part/ Unit VII Scholarly Activity
