ielts essay

Post by Ligy »

Many offenders commit more crimes after serving the first punishment.why is this happening and what measures can be taken to tackle this problem?

Most of the criminals are engaged in illegal activities after releasing from first imprisonment.This essay will discuss about the causes of recidivism are improper jail system and difficulty faced by offenders for employment and suggest solution for this are giving vocational training to the prisoners and assisting to develop self-esteem among jailers.

To begin with, most of the countries,offenders are staying together in prison.This will facilitate the inmates to exchange their ideas ,which they did in the past as they have nothing to do inside the jail.As a result of this,a criminal who is sentenced for a minor crime will commit serious offence such as murder or robbery after their imprisonment.Hence,prison system should be modified in-order to prevent re-offence.Moreover,majority of the criminals are uneducated and others may experience difficulty in getting job.This is because,employers are unwilling to hire people with criminal background in their institution and society will alienate the criminals from the public. Subsequently,they may have to involve in criminal activities to earn for daily living.

To prevent re-offence,proper guidance and supervision inside the jail is needed for the prisoners.This may happen by giving vocational training to the inmates such as teaching them computer programming or book binding ,that will assist them in finding job after incarceration.In addition to this,jail authority should identify the talents of the prisoners and encourage them to develop that skills.For instance,in India,prisoners who are interested in studying have the opportunity to pursue their studies inside the jail and also library for prisoners who want to read.Thereby, prisoners will develop self-esteem and engaged in creative activities rather than sharing their criminal activities.

To conclude,although criminals may commit crime after imprisonment,proper guidance and vocational training can reduce the rate of re-offence.Government should take essential steps for rehabilitating offenders and modifying jail system.
