Every state should adopt this program. It gives felons, even those serving life without parole, a chance at having their term reduced. Governors in at least nine states have commuted the sentences of multiple prisoners serving life without parole.
Why is this important?
Do you believe in second chances? Only those who have served fifteen years of their sentence are permitted to apply. Behavior in prison, list of academic or prison accomplishments, participation in job training, and other self-rehabilitation efforts will all be reviewed by a judicial panel. This would determine if the sentence will be decreased or even have their sentence reduced to time served.
