Truth-in-sentencing laws aim to preserve the time sentence set for criminals at the time of their conviction. Advocates of these policies argue that when an individual is sentenced for 5 to 7 years and ends up getting released after serving 3 or 4, it constitutes deception and <u>a disservice to "the public's right to know"</u>.
Since 1994 in the U.S., the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act started giving out additional funding as an incentive to states that <u>ensure criminals convicted of violent crimes serve </u><u>at least 85% of their sentence</u><u>. Up until 2008, 35 of the 50 states have kept up these standards.</u>
Hope this helps!
I believe the answer is: Does the speech pose a threat to the public <span>interest?
One example of such speech would be a speech that call for a destruction of other people's house. This type of speech could either make the target of speech feel unsafe/distress, or make other people actually persuaded to destroy the house. Since both of them are breaking the law, such speech is not protected under free speech.
