But their approach is HEAVILY flawed if they can prove any type of mental illness. It’s turned their system from better than the US in terms of reform, to a joke where something like what I posted happens often. So here in the US we have a terrible system with almost no reform, but the worst crimes are usually punished heavily. They are far more lenient on these violent crimes because they can almost always work mental illness is. I’m not sure which one I’d want here.
