Federal criminal sentencing policy now, more than ever, is the
subject of substantial public debate. Incarceration rates are up
and violent crime rates are down - suggesting that our
incarceration policies are a success. Yet, a recent report by the
American Bar Association is critical of government policy as overly
onerous. Meanwhile, Congress and the Courts are in a tug-of-war
over which branch controls sentencing policy. Join us for an
informative debate on the status of federal criminal sentencing
policy.
