‘Why prisons don’t work’ research response I agree with Wilbert Rideau’s argument that the United States penal system is ineffective and can be fixed. Rideau claims “The only effective way to curb crime is for society to work to prevent the criminal act in the first place” (217). Prisons collect criminals but it won’t stop crimes from occurring.
