  • RESPONSE 2
    Some disagree however in certain circumstances. If there has been a crime of passion where someone lashed out on a partner for cheating, they are less likely to reoffend. The best thing may be to leave them free on license. Saves paying and no real threat to society so GHP satisfied.

    Saves society money by sentencing someone who is unlikely to reoffend, and not creating a generalised stigmatisation that every crime deserves the same punishment. Takes into account circumstances of offenders, therefore more understanding sense towards impact of custodial sentences.
  • ANALYSIS
    • It will have a less damaging impact on the life and family of the criminal.
