I think many prison inmates mature while incarcerated and rethink their lives (the high cost and difficulty of obtaining drug & alcohol is probably part of it) and welcome a chance to become a contributing member of society.
Of course, there will always be the ones who we really need to keep isolated to protect the rest of us. And telling who is who presents a daunting task.
A heart-warming story, Warren.
