"Yes I think so I think anything that happens in life is an opportunity. A prison sentence can be a real wake up call to individuals that their life was going off track and they need to do something about it. Also there are literacy programs and spiritual programs in prison that a person might not have had access to before. While it can go either way, I do think it's possible a prison sentence can change someone's life for the better.'
"Yes, a prison sentence can be beneficial. If a person uses his time in prison reflecting on the actions that got him there and resolving to change his life upon release, prison can change that person for the better. The extended amount of time that is spent in prison, with nothing to do but read, write or think, can help a person to make realistic resolutions that will lead to life changes when they are let out of prison. The sentence can also serve as a time for the inmate to reflect on the emotional issues that have led to a life of crime, so he won't repeat the same mistakes."
"Yes. Doing time changes a person Time away from those we love changes a person. My husband was a repeat offender. We have been happily married for 11 years now. It has not been an easy road to walk. Not many will understand this. But after four years away this time, and watching the hardships I had to go through to maintain our home and family, my husband has now come out and got his act together as they say. He had a full time job within a week, is working a solid program. A world of difference from the man he was years ago. But the key is, the person has to want to change. Otherwise, he or she will continue on the path of destruction without much hope of success. The change did not come without a price, nor did the benefits come without help and support, The system is set up for failure, so the fact that the change is even possible is a miracle in itself. Whatever experience, or moment of clarity he had that changed him, I can't entirely say, but know the man that went in, is not the same as the one that came out this time. So for all the circumstances, and all the people that have helped be the catalyst for change, I thank you."
"Prison can cause people to reevaluate their lives and change themselves. Being locked up gives people a lot of time to think. Many people in prison will use that time to reevaluate their lives and the choices they have made. Not all, but many will decide to make a change for the better and avoid ever coming back to prison again. In this way, a prison sentence can change a person for the better."

And I could bring more how jail changes people instead of taking away someone's life. If those criminals stayed in jail would those people had died? People learn from their mistakes. Like I keep on saying the more dangerous the criminal the longest they should be kept in jail and the less dangerous they should have less time but not to little
