A lot of people who have committed crimes tend to get lifetime charges even though they could have had personal problems. People in court systems tend to ignore clear signs of mental issues or trauma in a victim of a lifetime system if it means a family can get some sort of relief over the situation. Its rather unfair but what can be changed about it? Even if the victim were to be put into a mental institute it wouldn't do much for them, sadly. In most places such as a mental hospital, the person who was sent after commiting a crime will be put into harsh placements and won't get most of the help they need. And if anything is done for them and they are finally fit for jail it can still effect the victim harshly.
c.Because the Articles of Confederation created a central government that contained only a legislative branch, it does not reflect the principle of "separation of powers".
