I do not believe the sentences are fair. Both defendants have committed aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, a first degree felony capable of 5-99 year prison sentences.


The sentencing may differ based on each of the defendants’ criminal history. Past criminal offenses can effect the sentencing of a defendant. The reason being, the potential for the individual to commit future crimes.
Another reason could be it would be easier to prove that the robbery of the gas station was premeditated because it’s an establishment. Premeditation can increase sentencing because the crime was planned out and there is more room for internal moral questioning regarding the crime.
The difference here in sentencing could also simply be the gender of the defendant. Throughout history women have received more lenient sentencing for crimes compared to their male counterparts. Gender shouldn’t effect the sentencing of a criminal due to the lack of logical basis. Lastly the the items that were stolen may have made a difference. Debra only stole cash totaling $450. However, Jonathan stole $400 cash and an undisclosed value of lottery tickets. With that being said, the value of the lottery tickets could’ve greatly surpassed Debra’s value total. Not to mention he stole two forms of personal property while Debra stole one. The value and amount of stolen property should effect sentencing because stolen property valuing over a specific dollar amount can determine whether or not the defendant will be charged with a felony.

Discuss how Madison managed to market the Constitution.​
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

 

Our cherished Bill of Rights, which turned 225 years old this month, is one of the great oddities of American constitutional history. What began as a mere afterthought to the Constitution ended up saving the Constitution from its Anti-Federalist critics, and today looms larger in the American mind than the Constitution itself.
