Crimes that the maximum Custodial Sentence of imprisonment could be halved by re-introducing Swift, Frightening and a Painful Dose of Corporal Punishment by adopting the age 'Parent Punishing a Child in the Home' Philosophy that over 97% of the 108 billion Homo sapiens circa lived under, would range from Level 6 up to a Level 2 criminal offences listed below.

Politically correct left civil libertarians that cannot countenance Corporal Punishment for adults should watch CCTV footage of hundreds of crimes each year, in particular Recent TV News Crime Clips on YouTube, that would be significantly discouraged through the re-introduction of Corporal Punishment, thereby avoiding "warehousing the problem" that has resulted in the Baker's Dozen Unsustainable Problems.

Below is an extract of webpage MAXIMUM PENALTIES in the Sentencing Advisory Council for the Victorian Govt website:

MAXIMUM PENALTIES The legislation that defines an offence sets the maximum penalty that courts can impose on anyone convicted of that offence. Maximum penalties are reserved for the worst, most serious examples of an offence. For a single offence, judges and magistrates may not impose a heavier sentence than the maximum penalty for that offence. Penalty Scale The maximum penalty reflects parliament’s view on the seriousness of the offence. Maximum penalties for many offences, including all offences in the Crimes Act 1958, are set according to a penalty scale, as outlined in the Sentencing Act 1991. The penalty scale for imprisonment has nine levels, ranging from Level 9 (which equates to six months’ imprisonment) to Level 1 (life imprisonment). The Victorian penalty scale also includes a maximum fine that can be imposed with each level of imprisonment (except for Level 1 life imprisonment). Here are some examples of offences ranked according to the penalty scale.

Level 1	Life imprisonment	Murder Trafficking in a drug of dependence (large commercial quantity)
