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.

Polonius tells king Claudius that the real reason for hamlet lunacy is what
victus00 [196]

Answer: Polonius believes that the real reason for Hamlet's lunacy is his love for Ophelia.

Explanation:

In Shakespeare's <em>Hamlet</em>, prince Hamlet decides to act as a mad man, so that he can revenge his father.

Polonius, however, believes that Hamlet has lost his mind because he loves his daughter, Ophelia, but she rejects his love. Polonius has told Ophelia that Hamlet is out of her league and ordered her not to be with him. Although she does have certain feelings for Hamlet, her father demanded that Ophelia ignores any love letters that he should send her. In <em>Act II, Scene II,</em> Polonius tells Claudius that this is the reason behind Hamlet's madness.

"lost in the woods" how does Tarshis describe the weather?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

In 'Lost in the Woods' Tarshis desribes weather by describing the atmosphere around, for instance, the weather was rainy which can be known through 'muddy trail.'

Explanation:

'Lost in the Woods' is a report of two kids who were lost in the woods in 2012.

The article was written by Lauren Tarshis. In her article, instead of directly describing the weather of woods, she describes the atmosphere of the woods.

The weather was rainy and dark. It can be known through 'muddy trail' on which volunteers were slipping over but it was Madee only who was sniffing around the muddy trail to locate the lost girls. When the girls were found, the weather described by Tarshis is dark, when she writes that the only light that shone in the forest were the headlamps that Madee and her owner, Greg, wore.
