ESSAY ON: Crime Seriousness And Prior Criminal Records Are Not Legally Relevant Variables

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: 3 pages in length. Inasmuch as crime seriousness and prior record are "the most influential factors in determining sentence outcomes" (Blumstein et al, 1983), arguing to the opposite finds one on a precarious perch where legal interpretation is concerned. However, this does not preclude the inherent value of such a stance, being that these two variables quite significantly alter the manner by which a given case is determined. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
