How do you people feel about jail people coming out early for being good?
Like people coming out in 5 years instead of 7 for being good.
I don't think it's right because killers could come out early and then start killing people again. |

it doesn't work like that (not in the UK anyway), with prisoners they are given a minimum sentance, so that they have to fulfill that sentance, probably around 30 years, before they can even go before a parole board.
Yeah, i think they should be let out early for good behaviour the prisons are full as it is. But prisons dont really work, a large number of people who leave prison re-offend because as they have no training or qualifications there only choice is to commit crimes. |

thats a bad law if you ask me, the chance of shorter sentances is an incentive to behave in prison and maybe even do something with their lives |

yea, that's true. like i said before, i can see letting people who stole something or vandalized something or something smaller like that out on good behavior, but not murderer's or rapists. |

They made the law for a reason: people getting let out early were getting into trouble again. Now they're just simply not going to let them out early. |
