I never could understand sentencing, especially life imprisonment sentences. If you're sentenced to life, you'd think that meant you were going to be locked up for a very, very long time.
Back in my younger days when I was pretty heavily involved in drugs and the drug trade, I knew several people that were sentenced to life for homicide. Only one is still locked up, and I think the reason for that is because of offences he committed while he was in prison, basically proving he's unsuitable for parole.
The rest of them were out within 10 years.
