Recent research suggests that the majority of criminals who are sent to prison commit crimes after they are released. Why is this the case? What can be done to solve this problem?

suggest some ways to resolve the problem. There are some reasons why the rate of becoming a convict again after rehabilitation increases.

market. As the result, they have to turn to crime for making living, which leads to an increase in the number of recidivists. Another reason for

this

issue can be social prejudice. Many people still have a prejudice against former

and ignore them even after they have been reformed. For

this

reason, it could be difficult for former criminals to reintegrate into

, which can help them make new friends or distance themselves from bad influences. As a consequence, they will be more likely to return to their old friends who were involved in criminal activities and continue to back to criminal

should take the responsibility to rehabilitate ex-offenders to prevent them from recidivism.
