Here Is A Novel Idea,

for offenders that commit petty crime,


send them to a two-hour course at the Brooklyn Museum, after the course, the cases would be dismissed, and no criminal court record is registered, the crimes that qualify for this regime are things like fare beating, painting graffiti, shoplifting, and trespassing, according to the article it is called “Project Reset,” the course at the Brooklyn Museum, has already started, I was doubtful at first, but Project Reset has a very low recidivism rate, of 500 people that have gone through the program, only three have been re-arrested it is reported in the article, so maybe sending criminals to art galleries really does work to stop reoffending, illustration The Persistence of Memory, photograph credit Salvador Dali.
