THE SOLUTIONS TO SERVING LESS TIME FOR LESS CRIMES .

What Is The Problem?

In the justice system officials aren’t willing to risk having criminals on the street, Meaning minor crimes or people serving their first offense may be wrongfully sentenced to many years. People, especially black males have a higher chance of being incarcerated longer for simple crimes such as drug possession, according to https://www.aclu.org/issues/mass-incarceration. For example, black people are more likely to be incarcerated for marijuana than white people. In 1985, 22 year old Steven Avery spent 18 years for a crime he didn’t do until DNA test prove he was innocent.

Who is affected when ones are put in jail for a long period of time ?

The imprisonment for three quarters of a million parents disrupts the parent-child relationships. A child can’t go long without seeing their parent if thrown in jail even if it’s their mom are that dad. In this type of situation it can cause the child to do corrupt things. Most kids keep it to themselves as a secret.

People who get thrown in jail without trial or without getting a background check should have a chance to prove there innocens in court.The government should make a policy to address this on going situation around the world ,They’re are too many people who have been in jail when they have already done the majority of their sentence.political activists use technology to talk about these solutions… VAN JONES started a police bay watch in 1995 to address police abuse towards innocent people he said ‘’ the hotline started receiving fifteen calls a day’’. Today in society we should come together as a strong community and tackle this problem so people can serve the right amount of time fits the crime. We should put more time in to getting young adults in to colleges after getting out of jail so the world can become more educational and less violent this is the real ‘’persuite of happiness’’.
