I’m all for doing things differently but as is the only reforms that seem to happen across the US is police and justice system reform.

They are at the back end of the problem and cannot just be dropped and have enforcement minimized without following through on more comprehensive changes that result in people getting to that layer of the issue in the first place.

>prisons so that they are truly rehabilitative

Yeah... that's the important one, and also the hardest

Deterrence requires a cost benefit analysis that children do not do. Making laws more and more draconian will therefore not help. Rehabilitation is not remotely possible at current spending levels and I don't think we're willing to do it at any spending level.
