Great! I'll commit a crime bad enough to deserve me 25 years in prison. Since you don't want to lock me up and would rather give me the money it would cost to keep me behind bars for 25 years then ...
25 years X $20,000 dollars per year to keep me locked up =
Half a million dollars!
Who says crime never pays!

Excellent suggestion, turtle, let's all commit crimes and get paid off instead of going to jail, then we'll all be freeeeeeeee.
The logic of brother edwin strikes again. What a class act he is.

Rather than spending however many hundred pounds/dollars on keeping a criminal in prison, just give them the money and tell them to do something useful with it.

Originally posted by Brother Edwinsounds like a nice idea at first. the prisons in the uk are all full up. we need more imaginitive ways of deterring crime. a criminal should be made to repay anything stolen, no matter how long it takes? only those who are a real danger to the public should be locked up?

death should be an alternative choice for those on long sentences?
chemical castration should be the punishment for repeat sax offenders? do you reckon it would work?
