honest questions
1. does a low crime reporting rate indicate distrust of the justice system? I can imagine that it might also indicate tight community cohesion.
2. does a low crime solve rate indicate ineffectiveness of the justice system? does this figure arise from "cold" police investigations alone, or are there other factors involved?
3. does a low conviction rate indicate a problem with legal frameworks or prosecutors? why are so many defendants acquitted?
4. does a low incarceration rate indicate a problem with sentencing guidelines? how does this correlate with recidivism?
