Alternative Sentencing We need to realize that the current approach to our penal system is failing terribly. Take a group of people‚ take away all of their possessions and privacy‚ expose them to violence‚ overcrowded cell blocks‚ and the result is a group of people intent on getting even with society rather than contributing to it. It is very expensive to house prisoners. There are several other options to deal with nonviolent offenders. Alternative sentencing is finding other ways to deal
