Answer 1

Answer:

First let’s start with why prisoners should be punished. If they are given too many luxuries then they won't reflect on what they did wrong and they'll come out of prison as the same person they were when they committed the crime. It is important for prisoners to understand that they're in prison because they committed a crime and are there to reform.

Does rehabilitation help criminals? Rehabilitation programs are not only a humane response to criminal justice, they also help reduce recidivism and lower incarceration costs, thus benefiting offenders themselves and society as a whole.

Explanation:

Prisons are the most unsuccessful institution to carry out their actual purpose of ultimately rehabilitating convicts to eventually become law abiding citizens and productive members of society. 68 percent of prisoners released return to prison for committing a new crime within three years of leaving (US Department of Justice).
