Some guys (such as this guy and most pedophiles) are pretty much immune to rehab.

Doesn't mean that scoffing at the concept is useful. One our every 100 adults in the US is in prison or jail. We have 5% or world population and 25% of the world's prison population. And lousy recidivism rates.

Effective rehab of petty criminals, drug dealers, etc., could be very cost-effective. But we have this hang-up about "rewarding" criminals.
