I think the saddest aspect of each of these crimes is the robbers are essentially still kids. They all seem to be between 18-21. I think part of their rehabilitation should be to get them mentors and a trade. Connect them with a second chance job so when they come out they have something other than the same situation looking them in the face.

I agree. Second chances and some real counseling/mentoring could definitely do these young men some good. I noticed it too. Such a shame.

Hey Hey now. Maybe you don't get my point-of-view. I'm not feeling sorry for them. They should totally be punished for the crimes they commit and the people they victimize. I'm simply saying that because they are so young, their minds can be lured in a positive direction while serving their time to truly rehabilitate them.

Im saying if they are doing this at a "young age" I say whats next? Armed robbery?

Exactly. That's why there has to be some sort of opportunity after serving the time. An effective second-chance program that reforms. If there isn't, one of us will be the next attempt at a victim and because they aren't smart criminals, they'll be headed back in. What people don't see is that society prefers this. It keeps police with jobs and prisons making money but what about us residents? How does this system help us? It doesn't. As a woman said on another post, after they are caught you still feel the crime in your home. That doesn't go away.

Yes Ashley you are correct, society prefers this. Normal people in society like having their houses burglarized. They like getting assaulted and robbed while walking down the street. And Ashley, since when do prisons make money?
Also, what makes you think that these crooks want to be rehabilitated? They choose to be criminals because they dont want to be part of normal mainstream society. If they did then they would have stayed in school and gotten jobs like the rest of us.
