Most challenges faced by prison establishment are caused by ' incarceration default settings' in the judiciary, prosecution & police. Not every person whose actions are contrary must be held in custody. The Judiciary Kenya Office of The Director Of Public Prosecutions National Police Service-Kenya should review these default settings

Read about the higher prison numbers despite early releases. Same case with Kenya's sporadic High Court led sentence review exercises for convicts. This is a common phenomenon. The answer lies in identifying the right people to put in custody at source The Judiciary Kenya Kenya Prisons Service

UK govt intends to enhance magistrate's sentencing powers 'which may please victims'. In my jurisdictions with professional magistrates & with varied sentencing powers, we see them using the same to send more non-deserving cases to custody than giving them noncustodial sanctions.

Unfortunately, many young people will fall culprits to the justice system during this festive season due to associated merry making. If only some proactive and preventive measures could be taken by their families and responsible institutions, many would not fall 'victim'.

Constitution of kenya guarantees all accused persons right to bail. This clause helps check presumptive detention even when there no potential risks. Our remand homes are congested with persons granted cash bail but cannot afford. Why are we punishing poverty. The Judiciary Kenya

What do sentencers punish, The crime/offence or the person? If it were the latter, prisons would not be as congested. Must every offence be punished? Why do we have provisions for alternative sentencing? Does incapacitation 'treat' crime? We need to rethink sentencing.
