Answer:

A. Life without parole.

Explanation:

Texas is one of the 31 states who offer life without parole as an option for some offenders. It basically means that they have to stay in prison for the rest of their life, without a chance to get on a parole.This resulted in less sentences to the death penalty, by lethal injection. This is most commonly used for hard cases of murder, or sexual abuses. Some justify this decision with the argument that the offender has no potential for rehabilitation and to successfully once again become a functioning part of a society.
