I have stated this before but will bang this drum again ... it is not a #SentencingReview that we need but a #LegislativeReview.

We have too many #laws, that capture too many, too young, for too little, that damage the futures of too many, for too long!

People want a justice system that works, not one lurching from crisis to crisis. Overcrowded prisons & short-term fixes fuel reoffending & fail communities, at huge public cost.

Today’s #SentencingReview offers a credible plan to break this cycle (1/3) www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/gauke-u...
Gauke unveils sentencing reforms to end prison population crisis
Short custodial sentences would be handed down only in exceptional circumstances and well-behaved prisoners released early.

Just come across this - when I argued in favour of increased sentencing discounts for properly early guilty pleas in rape cases.
Justice for victims means many things, not always long prison sentences.
Maybe this could be considered in the #SentencingReview

Pact CEO Andy Keen-Downs CBE responds to the Independent #SentencingReview published today, highlighting the urgent need for improved regimes and engagement with prisoners’ families (link below).
#CriminalJustice #PrisonReform
While we welcome the reforms, we remain concerned that current prison regimes offer limited opportunities for purposeful activity and effective rehabilitation. There is also a danger that increasing the use of Home Detention Curfew, or tagging, will place further pressure on an already overstretched probation service, as well as on prisoners’ families.
