Happy Friday! Today, we're delving into the intricate world of crime. We're shedding light on which country has the highest incarceration rates in 2023, who has received the longest prison sentences, and which country has the highest recidivism rate.


Which country has the highest incarceration rates?

Even though the United States has only about 5% of the world's population, it has 25% of the world's prison population, with 2 million people behind bars.

The incarceration rate in the United States stands at 629 people imprisoned per 100,000 population, although it is currently the lowest it has been in 20 years.
