I am not making excuses either, but it is clear that once they have been to prison, it is very difficult for them to go back to their own environment and get a proper job.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-75056714570363456752010-01-14T18:40:31.412+00:002010-01-14T18:40:31.412+00:00What a great scheme.
