Custody For Youth – A First Or Last Resort
I think custody should only be used as a last resort for youth criminals. There are too many criminals in prison and they will eventually over run the police. If they escape they might try to break out other people too. They could try to take out cops when they are off duty. They most likely will bring in more criminals and make a serious problem for the police.
The youth criminals go in angry and come out angrier than they were before. Sometimes warnings work better for a youth criminal. They will lose interest in crime eventually if they keep getting warnings. I think everyone deserves a second chance, even a criminal. There are more crimes committed inside the prison walls.
Sometimes people are framed so the criminals don’t get caught. They might get hurt inside jail because they aren’t criminals like the mean muscle men. They might steal because of a poor family life. They also might steal because they want to make their own earnings, only they are doing it the wrong way. Some people are forced to do crime or else something bad might happen to his/her family.
Some people don’t know what they are doing because they might be drunk or high on marijuana. Some people need professionals to help them stop committing crime. Custody should only be used as a last resort because if he/she is framed then he doesn’t have to go to prison for something he/she didn’t do. But honestly I don`t think the criminals should go to prison if he/she admits the crime. I think youth criminals should stop after a couple warnings because they honestly don’t want to learn their lesson the hard way.
Like in my sentences, I don’t think criminals should even be warned worthwhile being taken in to custody until they have been at least proven guilty. Doing some community service will even help some criminals stop committing crimes. Some criminals don’t mean to hurt anyone only it ends up they do. Like I said everybody deserves second chances so I hope you will agree. But think about even the most dangerous criminals deep down they still have hearts.
