I believe that more rehabilitation programs should be implemented at the beginning of a sentence and that the sentence should be reviewed at a minimum of 15 years. I believe that they should have to check a certain amount of "boxes" in order to be considered and psych evaluation be done. I also believe that rehabilitation should continue after release and that part of the condition of their release should be to continue these programs by teaching them within the prison system starting with those first arriving. This will create a new cycle of healing and growth with constant reminders of where one has been to where one can go. This solves the economic problem of lack of resources for rehabilitation support within the prison system as the prisoner receive training while in prison. Obviously, if their release is rejected, they aren't ready, qualified or emotionally/mentally capable of teaching.
