Nope. I'm suggesting that people who offend (especially reoffenders) should go to therapy (locked ward) instead of prison and be taught how to be functioning human beings who don't hurt others, especially those close to them. The sentence would be similar to their incarceration.

What I'm suggesting is akin to a prison sentence and probation (which may have terms and conditions).

You are acting like I'm talking about all people, but I'm limiting this to people who commit violent, domestic crime against others, especially repeatedly.

Lundy Bancroft is known for conducting the very thing you seem to be describing. If you haven't already you should check out his works.

Never heard of this person, but given that there are accusations against them that are at the forefront of search results I'm unsure if I feel it prudent to expose myself to their works.
