USA Incarceration Rate

Image
  Q. Why does US have the most incarcerated?      Incarceration is the state of being confined in prison, typically as punishment for a crime. Every country in the world has a prison system of some sort, though the exact nature of that system as well as the number of prisoners incarcerated within it varies tremendously from country to country.      The United States leads the world in total number of people incarcerated, with more than 2 million prisoners nationwide (per data released in October 2021 by World Prison Brief ).       This number is equivalent to roughly 25% of the world's total prison population and leads to an incarceration rate of 629 people per 100,000, the highest rate in the world.       The prison populations in each U.S. state vary from one to the next, with the highest rates in Louisiana and Oklahoma .

Ending Mass Incarceration

  Means to "Stop Incarceration The Innocence" because we can! Stop using Circumstantial Evidence (indirect evidence that does not, on its face, prove a fact in issue) "Without" collaborating physical evidence (tangible that the court can examine and consider.) Stop using "He Said, She Said" as evidence (uncountable) Conflicting reports. Circumstantial Evidence: For example, that a suspect is seen running away from a murder scene with a weapon in hand is circumstantial evidence he (MAY HAVE) committed the murder, (Not Proven or demonstrated by evidence) but by argument only to be true or existing Collaborating Physical Evidence; Physical evidence is something "tangible" that the court can examine and consider in "making connections and determining proof beyond a reasonable doubt." Physical evidence include guns, weapons, bodily fluids, a bloody knife or clothing, fired bullets, spent casings, DNA, fingerprints, footprints or lipst...
