Source, please, that just seems incorrect.
That would mean for 2mm prisoners there would be 1.1mm murderers, rapists, and manslaughterers. That seems like way too large a number to be realistic with the declining rate of murder, rape, and manslaughter.
- selectodude 4y agoThere are literally hundreds of crimes that are neither drug possession or “murder, rape, and manslaughter.”
- dotancohen 4y agoPresumably murder, rape, and manslaughter carry longer sentence terms. If a rapist spends five times as long in prison compared to a drug offense, then there will be five times as many rapists behind bars if the quantity of the two crime's convictions are comparable.
