BBC Documentaries - Women Prisoners: Throw Away the Key?

Seizoen: 2016 - Aflevering: 177 / 3219 - Eerst uitgezonden: 15 juni 2016 - Episode ID: 1376703

Scotland jails more women than almost anywhere else in northern Europe. It's expensive and it has a shattering impact on the families. One of Britain's top human rights lawyers, Baroness Helena Kennedy QC, examines new plans to close down Scotland's women's prison at Cornton Vale and move many of the women from prison into communities across Scotland. She looks at the success of international attempts at prison reform and questions why more funding isn't being given to successful justice projects in the community.
