Ram-raids, stabbings, and shootings - barely a day goes by when we don't hear about them. And it's a big driver of an increase in prisoner numbers.
"Yes we have seen it come up since June," said Corrections national commissioner Leigh Marsh.
New figures from Corrections show the number of inmates increased from 7728 in June to 8308 as of Friday. That's an extra 580 people in prison. But Corrections said it's coping with the influx.
If we had better leadership, in turn creating a better society, people wouldn't have to turn to crime and drugs.
