BellamyJames Posted June 28, 2019 Report Posted June 28, 2019 This isn't something that would need to be scripted into the game in any way it would just take some organization and maybe a little government funding, but two ideas kind of in here to offer some rehabilitation. Right now if you're arrested and sent to prison, the second your time is up you walk out the door, have a fellow gang member pick you up, and you're back doing what you were doing. A lot of people say extending prison time, I think a solution that could be used in conjunction with it or instead of extending time, would be to offer a halfway house where they must live in for a certain amount of time while doing regular civilian jobs and report in with a parole officer showing that you are working and staying crime free. (until however long you're required to stay at the halfway house) 1
Wizzidy Posted June 28, 2019 Report Posted June 28, 2019 +1 as we are already working on this in the DOC but it needs a little support from the legal side of things to offer incentives for doing so... 1

Oh awesome, well I didn't mean to come up with a half baked idea when there's already planning in the works for something like it that's probably a lot more thought out

We want this too we are just trying to iron out how it would work and what makes a person interested in it.... this would involve PD, government, and other legal factions coming to respect reform so people could get jobs if they went through a reform program and were crime free for a period of time. Or perhaps the government offering record expunging, forgiveness, or charge reduction based on good behavior... there are a lot of options but it should definitely be a conversation. We want any and all ideas to bring to the table on how to do this well and with good RP as well as preventing any potential abuse. 1

I think even outside the official factions you could find other businesses that would be willing. I'd always be willing to hire on one or two and report in on their performance and behavior.
