On the Fact that (According to Researchers, Charles Murray and Anthony Daniels) In England In 1900, There Were 6.5 Indictable Crimes per One Prison Inmate and Now There Are 115 Indictable Crimes per Inmate

So either the police aren't catching these criminals, they are and the cases are week, or the cases are strong and the judges are slapping these crooks on the wrist. Whatever the reason, it certainly doesn't seem optimal for public safety in England these days.
