I personally believe that this is the case. The answer is asking you to wonder what action is a worst evil. Whether it is better that guilty people are free, or that a single innocent person is in prison. I agree that this is the case, because I believe that the mental and emotional damage to prisoners is enormous. People in prisons suffer from loneliness, isolation, abuse, and the inability to lead their lives the way they want. As difficult as this is for guilty people, it would be even more so for someone who is free. On the other hand, if guilty people are free, there is no certainty that they would commit a crime again, or that they cannot successfully reintegrate in society.

What was Woodrow Wilson's impact on the Treaty of Versailles?<br> BoldItalicUnderline
defon
On July 10, 1919, the president of the United States, for the first time since 1789, personally delivered a treaty to the Senate. This was no ordinary treaty; it was the Treaty of Versailles, ending World War I and establishing the League of Nations. As Secret Service agents and Capitol Police officers sealed off the Senate wing to everyone without a special pass, President Woodrow Wilson walked into the chamber lugging the oversized document under his right arm. Recently returned from Paris and his unprecedented self-assigned role as leader of the American negotiating team, Wilson hoped for prompt Senate approval but feared trouble from Republicans, newly restored as the chamber's majority party.
