(IIRC the 20-1 compromise is what they went with)

The results of many of the arrests is the forced socialization process of the individual into the penal system and penal society. Once in prison for a simple drug possession charge they literally enter a criminal university as they are exposed to real criminals and also forced to survive within such an environment. Thus they have no choice but to fit in with their peers while in prison. Effectively creating more criminals in the long run.
