This 'At Issue' (also called Pro/Con) page in a CQ report on restorative justice juxtaposes two opposing editorials on the impact of restorative justice. It asks: "Can it help victims and rehabilitate criminals?"
As a side note, as you research, consider the language used in the sources you find and try a range of search terms, including person-first language instead of language that defines someone by a conviction.
Look for these types of pages relevant to your topic.
