A lot of things occur in jail but because we've managed to do two things: Lock up the most citizens of any other Country and 2) Made someone in jail appear less than human
Most look the other way with a "they deserve it" or "who cares attitude"
Would you prefer we didn't lock them up and just did as other countries do and either execute them or let them run wild?
false premise. other countries do not execute and do not lock that many people.
Mandatory sentencing is one of the reasons we have so many inmates.
And it is a business, too
I seriously hate mandos. it gives the prosecution too much leverage.
