Short term prison sentences - why are they a disaster? Catch22Minutes

- Non-Profit
In this episode of Catch22Minutes, we’ll be exploring the problem with short term prison sentences.
Last month, Justice Secretary Alex Chalk, announced that there will be a new legal presumption that offenders facing jail sentences of under 12 months will instead be given a community sentence. This is welcome news for many working in the Criminal Justice sector, as removing short term prison sentences has been at the top of the agenda for many organisations and politicians.
Joining Stella to discuss short term prison sentences, and why they do not work is Harvey Redgrave, Chief Executive of Crest Advisory, and Trustee and Catch22.
