I'm from a country where the main focus of the judicial system is rehabilitation. Mental health facilities are in fact part of it.
If our experience is anything to go by, you will absolutely still need to lock up certain people. For their own safety and that of society at large.
Some people cannot be cured, or resist treatment to such an extend that it is effectively impossible.
It's an uncomfortable truth.
