The aim of the Eighteenth Amendment was to ban alcohols and declared the act of production, transportation and sale of alcohols illegal.

Explanation

The eighteenth amendment was a huge failure.

Before implication, many claimed that alcohol increased violence and related problems to family life.

It was introduced with good intention to restrict people from alcohol addiction but criminals found numerous ways to sell alcohol illegally taking making lucrative fortunes.

This amendment was introduced in 1919. The 21st amendment was made in reverse to the 18th amendment.

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.
