Extractions: AN OVERVIEW Until 1984, people convicted of felonies in Washington State could be granted probation with sentencing deferred, granted a suspended sentence subject to probationary conditions which might include some county jail time, or committed to prison. Those sentenced were given the maximum term provided by statute for the particular crime, which if not otherwise specified, was twenty years. The actual time to be served in prison was determined by the Board of Prison Terms and Paroles, which initially decided on the minimum term for each prisoner, reconsidered it annually, and further reduced it up to one-third for "good time". Upon release, the prisoner continued on parole for the remainder of the maximum term, and could be returned to prison at any time for violations of the specified conditions of parole. The Sentencing Reform Act of 1981, which governs crimes committed on or after July 1, 1984, was the result of ten years or so of scholarly debate regarding the broad discretion given judges and parole boards under the indeterminate sentencing laws. Judicial discretion was criticized on the basis of the great disparity in sentences given to individuals convicted of the same crime. Parole board discretion was condemned because of the unfettered control exercised over the lives of prisoners and the resulting uncertainty created, as well as public dissatisfaction with the large difference between the formal sentence and the lesser time actually served.

Extractions: When an individual engages in criminal activity, it is to the advantage of all Albertans that the individual be held accountable and encouraged to become a law-abiding member of society. While the onus for change rests with the individual, it is believed that change can be facilitated by providing offenders with assistance and opportunities that promote positive and productive behaviour.

Extractions: C hildren's right to maintain contact with their family is not only at risk when they themselves are detained. Ruska prison is the only prison for women in Moldova. About 290 women are currently imprisoned there. It is difficult for them to communicate with their families, and in particular with their children if they are in children's homes and boarding schools which are far from the prison. The prison makes available five rooms where the children can sleep with their mothers, and a place where food can be prepared, but many children simply do not have the financial support required for the journey to Ruska. Absence of contact between mother and child does not help their rehabilitation and integration into society. Moldovan NGOs recently organised a minibus to bring a group of children to Ruska. The children were accompanied by two young women who had themselves been prisoners at Ruska. The NGOs working with the women's prison and the colony for young men in Lipkany are the Moldovan Section of the International Society for Human Rights (

RAC Issue In Focus: Crime And Criminal Justice to efforts to prevent recidivism and promote rehabilitation. youths struggle with social, education, emotional, or who have committed no criminal offenses are http://www.rac.org/issues/issueccj.html
Extractions: Status In recent years, politicians have been quick to adopt a "get tough" approach to crime that does not always pay enough attention to the root causes of criminal behavior, and to efforts to prevent recidivism and promote rehabilitation. This approach has been particularly evident in the area of juvenile justice. Legislative Summary Juvenile Justice Contrary to popular belief, juvenile crime rates continue to decline, and the vast majority of young people caught up in the criminal justice system are not violent and do not re-offend. Between 1995 and 1999, the rate of juveniles convicted of murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assaults declined by 23 percent, dropping to its lowest level in 10 years despite continuous growth in the juvenile population. Most delinquent youths struggle with social, education, emotional, or economic hardships that are often beyond their control. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act In the past, juveniles were routinely housed in adult prisons, and as a result, were often subject to rape and assault by both inmates and prison staff members. In 1974, however, Congress passed the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA). The JJDPA remains the most important measure protecting the rights of juvenile offenders in our criminal justice system. Under the law, states are required, as a condition of receiving federal funds, to maintain four core protections for children:

We believe that someone is sent to prison AS punishment and not FOR punishment. As part of this, we believe that prisoners have entitlement to all rights not necessarily taken away by being in custody.
