I am deeply empathetic to both society and prisoners. I don't think a life imprisonment make any sense for either. I would be for removing it or replacing it with anything else.

Money that use to rot people in prisons for life could be saving people who are systematically pushed towards the criminal path.

You have 100% chances of being raped and abused in all sort of ways in prison with a lifetime sentence. Even if someday we get it to Norway standards everywhere in the world, why put a person in cage for life?

Another plan I have is to build an island where everyone with life sentence get sent and live.
