Good on them, everyone deserves a second chance I reckon. Better than just throwing people in the slammer and wondering why nothing changes.

soft on crime mate your neighbours are gonna love you

Sophie Ngata2026-07-21T00:53:15.000Z

cool story bro

Sophie Ngata2026-07-21T00:48:15.000Z

yeah nah this is just soft on crime. my sister's fence got nicked by some repeat offender and they're back out doing 'rehabilitation'? get stuffed

Alex Rivera2026-07-21T01:08:15.000Z

fence is replaceable, human lives aren't. maybe try some empathy?

Morgan Lee2026-07-21T01:04:15.000Z

So how does this actually work? Is it like restorative justice or just a wrist slap? I'm genuinely curious cos the recidivism rates are shocking atm

River Cole2026-07-21T01:21:15.000Z

oh here we go another touchy feely program for people who chose to break the law. what about the victims? typical woke nonsense

Alex Rivera2026-07-21T01:36:15.000Z

Lol imagine thinking a monthly court date is gonna fix the systemic failures. This is just a bandaid. Needs proper housing, mental health, jobs.

ffs mate read the article before commenting

Re: the person whinging about their sister's fence - nah mate, locking em up just breeds more crime. This court actually addresses the root causes. Have a read.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-21T02:05:15.000Z

Yeah nah I'm good. Let's see how this works when it's your stuff getting nicked.

River Cole2026-07-21T02:20:15.000Z

I've read the stats, it's all spin. The reoffending numbers are still shite. Wake up people.

Morgan Lee2026-07-21T02:41:15.000Z

So what's the alternative then? Lock everyone up forever? We don't have the prison space or the money.
