Dear Editor,
There is no doubt that the study done by the Research, Planning and Legal Services (RPLS) Branch of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF), which linked the majority of adult inmates in various penal institutions to certain high schools, is of some value.
However, it may be of even greater value in determining what needs to be done to remedy the problems that persist.
If the RPLS could provide for the public just how many of the JCF's rank and file attended or graduated from these very same "prison schools" it might serve interest and purpose. In addition, when did the inmates who were surveyed attend those high schools?
