Criminal Psychologist

During the writer’s fortnight, I attended 4 different stories from guest speakers. The criminal psychologist was the one as I have always been fascinated by the mind. Going in I thought that he would have told quite traumatic experiences and say that the criminals deserve to be punished in the way that they are but as a matter of fact he says that society doesn’t help former prisoners reform causing them to re-offend. The media has a lot to do with this as we see sex offenders as one of the worst types of criminals that will definitely re-offend but in reality, they have one of the lowest re-offending rates. This pushed me to believe that if given a fair shot that lots of reformed prisoners could integrate into society if they would be accepted.
