For instance, someone who rapes others and a serial killer because they might have a psychiatric illness which rehabilitation would not benefit them they do not have control of themselves, therefore, it is better to punish them with prison. As it states in the book Essentials of Criminal Justice, “violent killers such as James Holmes, seem mentally and emotionally unstable. I have read an article about psychiatrist crimes that explained why the suspect should be punished to prevent conditioned in public. “Although this outcome may be legally possible if the mental state of the patient has improved, potential danger and threats to public safety remain primary concerns, not releasing the patient from responsibility because of mental illness, even in situations when it might be appropriate.”
