California Bill Could Give Juveniles In Prison For Life A Second Chance

A controversial bill headed for a vote in California has stirred up conversation again about whether life sentences for juveniles need to be re-examined.

Under the state bill, which received a key vote Wednesday to allow it to head to the Assembly floor for a vote, some juvenile offenders would get the opportunity for release.

At the heart of the bill is a question that's been pondered by legal scholars, law enforcement and even the Supreme Court: Should juveniles who have committed crimes that led to a life prison sentence be given a second chance?

  3. More of the same from the Left Coast! Sadly (or maybe not since they keep re-electing them), it is California's citizens who will suffer from this decision by their brain-dead, liberal politicians.

    ...and you are 100% right, 7:26 AND 7:36
