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

A large number of criminals who serve their

first

prison

sentence leave

prison

only to

reoffend

cause to feel resentment or indignation

offend

.

This

is mainly because of the lack of rehabilitation and difficulty finding regular employment once released. There are a number of solutions which should be implemented to deal with criminals who

reoffend

cause to feel resentment or indignation

offend

.

Firstly

, the reason for most

first

-time offenders to commit crimes again, once they have been released from

prison

, is the lack of rehabilitation whilst in

prison

.

In other words

, offenders are not given a chance to retrain and learn new skills for their future or develop a deeper understanding of correct moral

behavior

manner of acting or controlling yourself

behaviour

.

Instead

, they mix with other criminals which only strengthens their criminal intentions.

Secondly

, repeat offending is

also

owing to the difficulty in finding employment after being released.

As a result

, many of them struggle financially and

this

forces them to go back to crime regardless of the consequences. There are two effective solutions to the problem of repeat offenders. One way to tackle

this

is to ensure that all criminals entering

prison

are given the chance to acquire useful skills which will hopefully ensure them a job after they have served their sentence. By doing

this

, they can get integrated back into the society and

also

find some means to support themselves financially. Another method of dealing with criminals who

reoffend

cause to feel resentment or indignation

offend

is to have more supervision and checks in place when they are back in society.

This

solution would hopefully prevent them from taking any chances and deter them from

reoffending

offending against or breaking a law or rule

offending

because they are being watched closely. In conclusion, providing vocational training in jail and monitoring their activities once they are out of

prison

are effective ways to deal with

this

issue. If governments implemented these solutions, crime figures would soon drop.
