People who are considering committing a crime in Northern Ireland may think twice if their mugshots are made public: the PSNI has announced plans to publish images of individuals who have been convicted of offences, with anyone sentenced to one year or more being considered for release.
The PSNI believes this approach will help build public confidence and act as a deterrent to crime.
So, is this a fair policy? Should offenders face this additional consequence, or is their sentence punishment enough?
Joining Andrea to discuss is Kathleen Chada, Founder of SAVE action group, Criminologist John Cuffe, Senator and Co-Founder of Tiglin, Aubrey McCarthy and listeners.
