Why does attempted murder get a lesser sentence than actual murder?

English

It’s not *supposed* to happen, but of course you can find instances where it does.

Some judges like to hand out longer sentences. Some are<span> just corrupt</span>.

It’s also possible that having the victim survive can work against you as they can now testify against you. An emotional plea from a victim can get a judge pretty worked up.

I don’t remember where I heard it, but a lawyer once advised a client that, “If you run someone over, be sure to back over them again and finish the job. Their family will get less money for a corpse than for a disability.”

Select the line that presents alliteration.
IgorLugansk [536]
An alliteration is a sequence of words that all begin with the same later, such as the tongue-twister "she sells sea-shells on the sea shore".

The only alliteration that I find here is "silent sea" -  so the correct answer as C, even though alliterations more often include more than two words, as in this case .
