The concept of rehabilitation is a fundamental part of the prison system, especially in the United States. Most criminals are, ideally, educated and rehabilitated before returning to society — assuming they don’t have a life sentence. For the most part, we operate under the premise that convicted criminals can learn the errors of their ways and go on to lead a better life for both themselves and society at large. That’s the idea, anyway. But the reality is that an overwhelming majority of conv
