Judge: Rehab For Offenders A Waste Of Time

Judge Peter Moss has given a hard criticism against the drug rehabilitation for criminal offenders. He is stating that less than half of the offenders complete the courses they are given, and can’t think of almost any drug rehab programs that have been successful for them.

Symbol of Law

Moss has a suggestion that he thinks would be the best for addicted criminals. That would be a abstinence-based rehabilitation. “The most appropriate way to deal with drug addicted criminals is to provide robust, abstinence-based rehabilitation which we know is most effective.”

Although he criticizes the current rehab system, he has been giving sentences considering this option. He tells this group of offenders is hard to work with, but the number of offenders who completes the rehab has risen from 28% to 43% in five years.
