Posted in: Nick Baker sent back to Britain to finish jail sentence See in context
"His weight has dropped from 15 stone to under nine stone and he has lost all of his muscle, along with several toenails after suffering frostbite every year."
This is what we should be hearing about prison inmates. The Japanese system gets the idea that prisoners are there to serve their punishment for a wrong-doing. Just having the knowledge of what happens to prisoners, a Japanese citizen might think twice about doing something illegal. Our (the UK) prison system is very... corrupt is the best word I can think of, because the prisoners are treated so much better than our elderly community.
Prisoners are actually getting internet access, limited albeit, but they're still getting it. So, getting to the point;
Good job, no wonder Japan has such a low crime rate. People might actually be scared of joing to jail.
