Impact of Determinate Sentencing Laws on Delay, Trial Rates, and Plea Rates in Seven States. | |
Marvell, T. B; Moody, C. E. | |
英文摘要 | Under determinate sentencing, when the defendant is sentenced to prison, the judge sets a specific term, and there is no discretionary release by a parole board. Its antithesis is indeterminate sentencing, under which the judge imposes a sentence that is a broad range of prison time, and the parole board decides when to release the inmate within the range or even earlier than the minimum. With determinate sentencing, one can estimate the actual term to be served by taking the sentence length set by the judge and subtracting credits expected for pre-trial detention and for good time in prison. Determinate sentencing is one of the most important sentencing innovations in recent decades, and the American Bar Association Sentencing Standards in 1993 adopted it, after supporting indeterminate sentencing for many decades. Its major rationale is the belief that imprisonment does not effectively rehabilitate inmates and that parole board decisions are often arbitrary and not based on the supposed rehabilitation of the prisoner. Those advancing determinate sentencing emphasize other goals for imprisonment, primarily deterrence, incapacitation, and ’just deserts’ punishment. |
