After finding the 50 year old Bart guilty of murder, the jury recommended a sentence of 30 years. The judge accepted their verdict and formally sentenced Bart to 30 years in prison. Fast forward ten years, two of the jurors have just finished eating at a local restaurant, when they shockingly see Bart walk into the restaurant. They immediately go to the district attorney’s office to find out what is going on. They are stunned by the news that Bart has been paroled. Both jurors agree if the jury had known Bart would be out in only 10 years that they would have recommended a much longer sentence. Critics have labeled this type of scenario as “dishonesty” in sentencing. Discuss whether it is appropriate for someone like Bart to be released from prison so early. Describe the potential negative affects of such an early release practice.
