The newly released prisoner.
This paper deals with the problems faced by offenders in a category of short-term, bit-term and long-term incarceration. Each group has characteristics which mitigate against unassisted rehabilitation. In a country burdened by unemployment of skilled and well-educated people, the criminal releasee is at a great disadvantage and often finds the freedom of prison more comfortable than the captivity of society. The bleak and forlorn futures of offenders vary in intensity. Certain recommendations are made in this paper which could prevent future criminal involvement.
