Legal Change in analyzing the State of the death penalty in decline
The death penalty in the United States of America is viewed as a bad thing by the sociologists in the United States. Ankur Desai and Brandon Garrett write about the State of death penalty decline. The authors are specific to the capital sentence issue at the State level and why it should be declined. Three legal changes need to be changed, as Ankur Desai and Brandon Garrett discuss them. The constitutional amendment that I will address in this forum is the State adoption of life without ParoleParole. They explain that the adoption of LWOP can be used to describe the drop in the death sentencing at the State level. When the States adopt life without ParoleParole can reduce the life sentencing inconsistently, and there is a small change that has been observed up to date. The authors explain how there has been a change in the number of prisoners being judged for the capital sentence.
In the past, State courts were allowed to handle the cases and come up with the final decision on whether the lawbreaker should be convicted in the court of law or not. Currently, many states in America have had the State adoption of life without ParoleParole. The approval has been associated with the human rights groups. The combination of LWOP and the life sentence options has been termed as some of the key things leading to the decline of capital sentence at the State levels. The study also shows that the introduction of life without ParoleParole has a higher contribution towards the reduction when compared to the LWOP. In short, the authors conclude that LWOP and the States adopting the experience without the ParoleParole have led to the decline of capital sentencing cases.
