    Kids committing crimes at 17 need rehabilitation and a 2nd chance at life! Too many 1st time offenders are not given the 2nd chance at living a life. Instead they are being punished, raped and abused legally in prison. What message does this send when kids make mistakes? Their brains are still developing, we need to rehabilitate not lock the kids up and throw away the key.

    Prisons are inhuman to kids at 17 to 21. Please rehabilitate not dehumanize them. These kids need a 2nd chance at life!

    People do deserve a second chance after 50% of time served. Additionally, if they haven't committed another violent offense after 15 years of supervision, they should be fully discharged from the system.

    My husband was sentenced to 25 yrs plus 2 strikes. Thts only because he took the plea deal. Otherwise it would have been 76 yrs plus 2 life sentences. Crazy part is he didn't even kill anybody. Ya he was young n dumb but now is a good man tht admits to his mistakes and whats to come home to us. My 7 yr old son loves him and is happy my husband became his papa. He's been in for 10 years now wthout ANY WRITE UP'S. Don't understand the system. More evil peole get out early but he can't... He deserves another chance in life.. Cut 85% to 66%..
