Question

This is a Falsification statement and need to explain why in TWO sentences why it is false and explain the correct statement.

PLEASE HELPP


The Pew 1 in 100 article illustrates that mass incarceration is the result of higher rates of criminal offending.

Answer 1

This statement is false as it overlooks the systemic and institutional factors that contribute to the disproportionate incarceration rates of certain populations, such as racial biases in the criminal justice system and the War on Drugs. The correct statement is that mass incarceration is a complex issue that cannot be attributed solely to higher rates of criminal offending.
