Answer:

D. Male offenders often have the mitigating circumstance of being responsible for the day-to-day care of children.

Explanation:

Option A is a correct statement because defendants who remain in custody are those who are not granted bail because of the gravity of their offence, and hence they are more likely to be sentenced to prison.

Option B is also a correct statement because elderly offenders are less likely to repeat their offense or engage in another crime as compared to younger offenders, hence they are more likely to receive probation or shorter incarceration

Option C is a correct statement because male offenders have shown difficulties than female offenders in being reformed.

The only wrong statement is D, as male offenders do not often have the mitigating circumstance of being responsible for day-to-day care of children, except for very few cases, rather female offenders are the ones with such responsibility.

Compare and contrast the destruction of Germany and the Southern states after the Civil war
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the end of the first world war it had been possible to contemplate going back to business as usual. However, 1945 was different, so different that it has been called Year Zero. The capacity for destruction had been so much greater than in the earlier war that much of Europe and Asia lay in ruins. And this time civilians had been the target as much as the military. The figures are hard to grasp: as many as 60 million dead, 25 million of them Soviet. A new word, genocide, entered the language to deal with the murder of 6 million of Europe's Jews by the Nazis.
