When tough-on-crime laws passed 30 years ago during an era of drug-fueled violence, they were supported across the political spectrum. The subsequent “war on drugs” sent non-violent offenders to prison for decades and, in some cases, life.

    Very interesting read

    Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2017

    This was a really good book for the price. It was very informative and seemed accurate. It makes you wonder about mandatory minimums and how many more non violent first offense prisoners are sitting in prison for years on end. I'm glad they proposed the changes.

    The article was very well written and contained Excellent information about the justice system and how mostly it does not work for those who need it most.
