The prison system as a whole has been overcrowded in every year since 1994. This book looks at different types of crime – which are going up and which are falling – as well as those suffering in silence, young lives behind bars and children’s experiences of visiting their parents in prison. It also addresses crime prevention methods such as forecasting crime hotspots, the increase in armed police and questions the use of the death penalty.
