Repeat offenders being let out to commit more crimes

But the situation is that MOST of them reoffend. According to this: https://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=6266 it’s over 80%.

I feel like for violent crimes or anything that causes bodily harm, I totally agree that the justice system is way too lenient. Particularly when it comes to sex offenses. I don’t think sex offenders can be rehabilitated. I think they will always be fighting their desires and eventually, if they see what they perceive is the right opportunity, they will strike again. Almost every single case I watch where there is guy picked up for murdering some woman or kid, there was a previous run in with the police involving a lesser version the same crime.
