An interesting idea...

For the five daily readers I have who don't regularly read The LawDog Files, go check out his ideas for prison reform. I'm not a big fan of the modern criminal finishing school penal system, so any improvement would be welcome. One that would actually make the miscreant reimburse their victims or die in captivity would be outstanding.

Probably never happen, but wouldn't it be nice?

A friend of mine came up with the idea that there should not be any prisons. The criminal should compensate the victim, to the best of their ability and then they have "paid their debt" and be done with it. Of course "best of their ability" included, if necessary, auctioning off all their body parts including eyes, heart, lungs, liver, and the remainder for fish food or fertilizer.

Seems like we could put the criminals to work on chain gangs doing some of the jobs that the illegal aliens are coming across the border to do, and solve two problems at once.

Of course it won't happen, Tam. That would be violating their rights!! How dare you even consider such a thing.
