80% of crime in New Zealand occurs under the influence of alcohol or drugs. This book is about how the New Zealand justice system perpetuates criminal behaviour and the Corrections Department fails to rehabilitate - maintaining a vicious cycle of addiction and substance abuse that inevitably leads to re-offending and recidivism.
