Recidivism
What If Scenario
Sentencing: Repeat offender
What if . . . you were a judge and you had a repeat offender for purse snatching in your courtroom? This individual has already been on probation and home incarceration. The individual has also spent a couple of years in prison but keeps recidivating. What other sentencing option can you envision that may deter this individual from committing further crimes?
For this assignment, I would like for you to make suggestions as to what other sentencing options you would suggest for this repeat offender and explain why you have chosen said punishment.
