🇬🇧BRIT Reacts To GUILTY TEENAGE CONVICTS RECEIVING LIFE SENTENCES!

[@SusanHamer]

I worked with juvenile offenders for many years. Remorse is rare. Many of them have already spent YEARS destroying families, disrupting classrooms before ever making it to court. Many have lengthy juvenile histories being given break after break by the court. The tears and strong emotion are regret they were caught and have to pay.

[@sandiduran962]

Yes, I know someone going through this. She adopted a family member's child after the mom died. He's been violent since he was little. He's13 now and outweighs her by 100 lbs. He does something, goes into juvie or a treatment center, acts all nice, then gets out. She has her 11 year old daughter living with her older married daughter so she won't get hurt by him again. She didn't know his history when she took him in. Now she feels afraid and trapped. She knows he's going to end up in prison. I worry about her.

[@Nurseynurse282]

Agreed with @SusanHamer. Working with juvenile offenders, I never saw any of them show remorse. They bragged so often about what they did. Did a few intakes where the juveniles bragged to the CO’s “told you I’d be back”. One juvenile laughed when they came in the last time, they said “oh I know this process, I’ve been here 18 times already”

[@TwiggyKeely]

Hi, Corrections Officer at a Maximum Security State Prison here (who worked on death row for a year before going to my current facility,) once you get life in prison without the possibility of parole, that's what you serve. You can try to appeal the sentence (We have 2 inmates on death row that have tried to get their death sentence overturned a couple of times,) but it is very rare that someone has a successful appeal.

[@YerpDerp17]

@@jeanine6328 This is sort of correct, but sort of overblown. Most inmates who kill molestoers or baby killers don't do it for moral reasons. They do it as yet another selfish act. Because in the prison everyone is bad, but some are worse. Its a way for murderers to say "yeah I might be bad, but I'm not a child molester" and for them to "look good". To be able to kill again, but to also morally justify it. Sure the outcome is the same either way no matter intent, but lets not act like those who kill those types in prison are good people. lol Because they aren't. Actually molesters getting killed in prison is much smaller than hollywood or the general public would have you believe. As is people getting raped in prison. It happens, sure, but its severely overblown, as if its a norm. lol Sadly MANY molesters survive and get back out on the streets.

[@Viridian-LN]

Jodi Arias was young but she wasn't a teen, she was 28 when she committed the murder. She's a very disturbing woman. There is video of her waiting in the interrogation room to be questioned by the police in which she mutters to herself that she should have put makeup on, does a headstand, sings "Oh, Holy Night", does a yoga stretch, amongst other strange behavior.

[@covewatcher]

Hi Kabir... depending on the state you are in, the appeal process can be a bit different. However, in general, you can't just appeal a life sentence because of the sentence itself. Your attorney usually has to find some point of procedure or fact finding or evidentiary error to have an appeal allowed to be heard. Beyond that, the court does not have to grant an appeal if the court finds the grounds for the appeal are either unfounded or insufficient. In short, if you get life without parole and there is no sound basis for appeal, you are gone for the rest of your life. Only if you have an opportunity for parole do you have any chance of ever getting out of prison.

[@lrsrosebud]

My dad was a prison guard for 16 yrs. He said he preferred working with (guarding) the “lifers” because they were resigned to the fact that they were never getting out and easier to manage. This was also in the 1940’s and 1950’s when (I believe) they didn’t have as many chances at appealing their conviction/sentence.

[@TwiggyKeely]

Old timers know how things work, they know how to keep their heads down and survive, you can tell the difference between the convicts and the inmates. The convicts generally cause less trouble and yes we do notice a difference when working with this part of the prison population...though they can also be the best at making and hiding weapons and contraband and run "stores" because they know how to get around things and they know policy, plus they have a certain level of respect from the other inmates because they've earned their "place' on the inside.

About Life without Possibility of Parole: If this is your sentence, then like with all sentences, you start your appeals right away. How many appeals you get depend on a bunch of factors, but there is typically a timeline for them unless new evidence is produced. Now, if it’s your sentence and your appeals failed and you are an exemplary inmate, it means pretty much nothing. Your motivation to be a good inmate comes from a desire for good treatment. Prisoners with great behavior get privileges others do not, including being a trustee, or similar. This gives them more freedom around facilities and more time out of their units.

[@kokomo9764]

If the sentence is life without the possibility of parole that is what it means. So 10 years down the line you cannot ask for parole. Any conviction can be appealed but that appeal must be made within 30 days of conviction.

@@Poseidon650 Thank you for identifying this person/story. To me it looked like the person expressed a kind of terror-remorse, which I understand is remorse for their own circumstance and not the death they caused, but I wanted to get the full story because I wasn't sure if I would feel justice was really served by giving older and more aggressive inmates a teenage boy to pass around. Now that I've read his story and his real sentence I understand why the sentence but still am not sure about "justice". His own family (who would be the victims in this case since it was his baby brother's death) sort of defended him in saying he had mental illness, and I'm just not sure if he started the fires with any intent to kill his brother, or just with the intent to start a fire. If it was the latter then, to me, "justice" would be more of a mental institution than prison. I just don't know. The truly obvious non-remorseful I can see taking that hardline stance on, but these ARE "kids" and I think that needs to be considered here in the US when we all know what is going to happen to them in prison, and it could be literally a situation worse than death that we subject them to.

That last psychopath who laughed and said, "I'll be home soon" killed his victim in my hometown Ann Arbor, Michigan. And Ann Arbor is an awesome college town, home to the University of Michigan; it has only about 120,000 residents there which is only slightly more than the capacity of Michigan Stadium, which is 110,000. So when this happened it was quite a bit deal. Not only because murders are extremely rare but because of that psychopath's crazy antics. I couldn't imagine being told I'd be in prison til death when I was 16,17 or 18. But I also couldn't imagine doing the things these guys did; kill their great grandma with a hatchet?!

We have a case in Missouri now, a man sentenced to life without possibility of parole for 50 years, of which the man, Kevin Strickland, has already served 43 years. Two men later confessed to the crime and have already served their prison time and have been released. There was no evidence linking Strickland to the crime. The only witness recanted her testimony. He has exhausted his appeals for a new trial. Our county prosecutor has been working to get him released, but our state attorney general has been doing everything he can to prevent it because he still believes Strickland is guilty. So, even righting a judicial wrong can be extremely difficult.

[@bombud1]

without parole is without parole. you have rights to a certain number of appeals with any type of conviction. you can only be convicted "beyond a reasonable doubt". so unless theres some new ground breaking evidence in your favor or possible wrongdoing by jury or officials in your first trial, a second look at old evidence is just going to leave you guilty.

[@coalbucket7229]

Beng sentenced to life without parole means just that. A prisoner's behavior, even if impecable, would not reduce that time. If a convict is sentenced to say 25 years to life, then he would have to serve a minimum of 25 years before becoming eligible to be considered for parole. In such a case, he would have to appear before a parole board which would decide his fate. I believe that prisoners are elegible for parole consideration once every five years. Prisoners who commit particularly horrible crimes seldom are paroled.

11:39 so if the judge says no parole, that’s no parole, but you can appeal your case as many times as there are courts above that one. Think of it like a stairway, you’ve got a few chances but once you reach the top one(which would be the Supreme Court) if you don’t get pardoned then that’s it. That being so, you have to get the courts to accept the case, each one harder than the last. Realistically they might only get one appeal if they can show something was mishandled.

[@joshbeezley4234]

It's theoretically possible that an appeal could see a different sentencing, but that's extremely rare, and in the case of "life without parole," there is no chance for parole, even with appeal. That's why such a sentence is handed out, because the judge has decided that they should never walk free again. Without some kind of retrial, parole is the only way out of a life sentence, so if that's taken away, then you're stuck for good.

[@goatitisful]

I had a close friend who got 108 years when he was 17 years old. He deserved it tho. He ran into a house with a mother, a toddler, and a baby, and he killed the mother and the toddler... by the time police found the baby, it was several days after the murder, and the baby was so dehydrated that he also died after being in the hospital for a couple days. So it's not always pretty, but anybody who could do that kinda thing should never walk the streets with innocent civilians EVER AGAIN.

[@bridgetpaul663]

Many of these people are crying because they got caught. How much sympathy did they show their victims as they committed these crimes. As for the guy who got life without parole, he has shown he is a repeat offender by sexually harassing 5 or more members of his own family. Imagine even with biding his team on good behavior, being released and committing more horrendous crimes. Honestly, many prisons in the U.S. don't have the funds to truly work with these offenders, so they are in a system that basically let's them sit there. It's actually up to the offender to work on his or herself to better themselves but even through good works the parole system won't let them go. There is a saying over here "don't do the crime if you can't do the time".

[@samhutchison9582]

You get a free no questions asked appeal. The validity affects whether or not you succeed.

If you lose at a State supreme court and the issue is one of constitutional law, you can request appeal to the supreme court of the United States, but again they have the right to reject it without hearing it.

The monster responsible for the death of an innocent toddler needs to go to prison for life and never ever see the light of day again outside prison, I don't care what age he or she is!

So a few things. If a person sentenced specifically Life without parole...that is it..the only way out is their death. They like all others do have the right to appeal through the courts. Hiwever, the court does not have to accept the appeal and retrial. A life in prison sentencing will vary from state to state. Anywhere from 15 to 50 before eligable..aagain that is NOT a guarantee it will be granted. And even IF granted the Governor of the state can deny it as seen in the case of Leslie Van Houten (Charles Manson member). She was granted twice and denied twice..one pretty recently. Although a model prisoner since sentencing, excepting her responsibility, etc. I doubt any Governor would accept it due to what occurred.
