key of course, is what crimes and how long people go to jail if
convicted of them.
I think your average murder spends 3 years in jail today whereas in the
1970s it was about
10 to 15 years. That is a huge savings to taxpayers when you think of
prison as costing
about 200 or more dollars to keep someone in it for a day. |
