In Italia circa 2.000 persone escono dal carcere per andare a lavorare, rientrando regolarmente in cella alla fine della giornata.
Altri 70mila condannati stanno scontando la pena fuori dal carcere (misure alternative, libertà vigilata, LPU o altro).
Oltre 27mila imputati sono in messa alla prova.
Insomma ogni giorno ci sono più di 100mila persone sottoposte a sanzioni o misure penali che lavorano e vivono tra di noi senza commettere nuovi reati e senza creare alcun problema.

in reply to Frankie ✅ • • •The image depicts a fantasy character standing against a plain white background. The character is a female with pale green skin and long, wavy purple hair. She is wearing a long, green cloak with gold trim, which has a hood that covers her head. Underneath the cloak, she has on a brown corset with a white ruffled shirt visible at the neckline. Her pants are a deep blue, and she wears brown boots that reach up to her knees. She is holding a silver sword with a curved hilt in her right hand, and her left hand is raised slightly, as if gesturing or casting a spell. The character's belt is brown with a gold buckle, and she has a sash across her waist. The overall style of the image is digital art, with a focus on fantasy elements. The image is credited to Paizo Publishing and the artist K Koz.
