I think we need to look to Star Trek: TNG episode for a proper solution here.

Simplify the penal code to eliminate prisons altogether. Instead, make every crime punishible by summary execution.

Think of the problems this would solve!

No prisons, no prison guards, no courts. An entire third of our government could be dismantled. In addition, think of how orderly society would be. Nobody would ever park in handicapped spots if they knew the penalty was death!

Good god, it's a utopia in the making.
