Changes to custodial sentences

"Prison in France must cease to be what it is: a humiliation for the nation and punishment added to punishment. Prison is not designed to destroy human beings, but to prepare them for the future by bringing them back into the body of our national community. Prisoners are part of that community, even if we can't see them. Robert Badinter 4th Parliamentary Meeting on Prisons 13 December 2007.
