Character bias is unfortunately all too prevalent. How many times have we seen lads from a ‘good family’ having character witnesses when accused of rape.

TLDR: 22% of prison population are non nationals. Down from 25% pre-covid.

Any study needs to show the breakdown on types of crimes committed. Normally prison is for repeat offenders and serious crime, but for low level crimes who are going to prison for them and who aren't so for example if you are from Romania, Mayfield or Finglas are you more likely to go to prison for the same crime than if you are from the US, Montenotte or Howth.

Crime reporting should report relevant information. How is where a suspect is from relevant information?

Why is the sex or race of the victim relevant but the sex or race of the accused is not?
