What do you think should be done with mandatory minimum sentencing law​

English

Mandatory sentences have the effect of transferring sentencing power from judges to prosecutors. Prosecutors frequently threaten to bring charges carrying long mandatory minimum sentences and longer guidelines sentences. These threats are effective in scaring a defendant to plead guilty in exchange for a reduced sentence and  to give up every factual and legal basis for a defense. As a result, every year at least 95 percent of federal drug defendants plead guilty.  CJPF is pleased to have worked with the team that produced the movie, Incarcerating US, to reform mandatory minimums, as well as allies such as FAMM - Families Against Mandatory Minimums.

What did the author mean by the lines
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

D. The runner's records had been broken and people have stopped talking about him.

Explanation:

The above option is correct.

In the stated lines, the author actually meant that the runner's records had actually been broken and people have stopped talking about him. We see this in the line that stated "Runners who renown outran" - this reveals that there are runners that outran the man. So, as a result of that, his record was surpassed and people stopped about him - this we see in the line: "And the name died before the man".

dezoksy [38]
She returned to her 12th birthday bcuz she thinks it was unimportant. While she was reliving this she realized that all humans are blind. She realized that she took life for granted and did not appreciate the little things. She did not appreciate what she had until she had lost it. In the beginning the other dead people had warned her not to return to the land of the living but she still did it. When she returned she told them "I should have listened to you. That's all human beings are. Just blind people. Thornton wilder is trying to get the readers to appreciate the small things   because later on they become things you regret that you did not appreciate.

hope this helps :)
