Holder Wants Shorter Prison Terms

Attorney General Eric Holder will speak later this morning in support of shorter prison sentences for some nonviolent drug traffickers. 

He'll endorse a change before the U.S. Sentencing Commission that could reduce the average drug trafficking sentence by 11 months and cut federal prison rolls by more than 6,500 inmates over the next five years. 

Holder will say the harshest penalties should be reserved for "dangerous and violent drug traffickers." But he may stay mum on identity thieves. 

The nation's top lawyer is the latest victim of tax return fraud. Federal prosecutors say two Atlanta men filed a tax return using Holder's name, birthday and social security number. Holder was among at least 10 victims. 

Prosecutors say the defendants got their victims' information from publicly available websites.
