  Hi Jay
  
  It may be possible at some point in the future to place someone in suspended animation, but I don’t think it would or should be used to contain criminals.
  
  Criminals need to be rehabilitated, and you can’t do that if they are in suspended animation.
  
  It could be used for people who have a disease for which there is no cure. Place them in carbonite and defrost them when a cure becomes available.
  
  Stay Awesome
