> there is value in locking up criminals that just haven't been caught doing their most violent acts.

you're making judgments before proof or evidence aka prejudice.




NO. I'm saying lock up somebody for one crime you have proof on, might not have been that criminal at their worst but you got them on the proof of another. They are paying the price and they can't do their worst crimes to innocent people when they are locked up for the moment. That's value to peaceful society.
