Yes, but deny if the repeat offences are violent or serious crimes. Misdemeanors like possession should not effect this.

In relation to drug offences, I do believe people should be offered help or guidance in the right direction to find help, but in general I think this question is too vague on the topic of repeat offenders.
@9ZTMQLQ4mos4MO
Depends on the type of crime. If a very serious and severe or violent crime then no but young people or first time offenders should have assess
@9ZTF4KK4mos4MO
All depends on the crime and why it was committed. For example an addict who keeps reoffending is only reoffending to feed a habit. If they are minor offences they should be entitled to help. In an ideal world they would be offered rehabilitation over punishment.
@9Z957JK4mos4MO
I do believe that everyone deserves free legal aid, however, if the person in question is a repeat offender and shows no signs for change, then the thought of reconsideration would stand to a certain extent
