| Nov 30, 2019 at 19:19 | comment | added | Alexei | @JoeW - there is a very small chance that the Ministry of Justice (the main proponent of the law that was later voted in the Parliament after substantial changes) cared about the inmates. However it was a benefit for those convicted for corruption and close to the political parties. A major side effect is that it seemed to apply regardless of the crime, so it also applied to murderers. | |

Well, some argued about the "original democracy" (in the sense of like nobody has seen before) that happens in Romania a long time ago. This is clearly an ongoing process. | |

| Nov 18, 2019 at 20:13 | comment | added | Joe W | I agree with the over crowding part but what you posted doesn't seem to cover that. And as for the over crowding part I know other countries do that but since that does not seem to be covered as part of this question I did not provide it as an answer. | |
| Nov 18, 2019 at 20:00 | comment | added | 264 champagne bottles on ice | @JoeW: I suppose that letting more people out of prisons is one way to reduce overcrowding (at little direct budgetary cost), although that might not automatically fix other issues with the prison-life quality. | |
| Nov 18, 2019 at 19:47 | comment | added | 264 champagne bottles on ice | @JoeW: I have no idea. That's probably a good question in itself. | |
| Nov 18, 2019 at 19:43 | comment | added | Joe W | Why would they make a law to reduce sentences based on prison conditions instead of a law to improve those conditions in the first place? | |
