For over half a century, violent crime has been rising in this country, while the penalties for it have been falling. These two trends throw current sentencing practices into the spotlight of public policy concern.
Charles Murray deplores the recent trend away from custodial sentences in favour of less punitive alternative responses to crime. He argues that criminal offenders deserve penalties of which the degree of severity better matches the seriousness of their crimes.
