‘And I turned 21 in prison, doin’ life without parole’

021506injail.gif A report in today’s Daily News says that none other than our fair commonwealth leads the nation in juveniles serving life without parole. More than 330 juveniles are in prison for the rest of their lives. (There are about 2,225 nationwide, which puts PA roughly at 1/7 of the total.)

Why does Pennsylvania have so many inmates? Tough sentencing laws, mainly, and apparently a lot of teenagers without proper arts, athletics and porn to occupy their time.

So, celebrate! Tonight, you can sleep easy, knowing that you are safe from those 330 or so life-without-parolers. Take it from Lynne Abraham:

“I have very little sympathy for the Amnesty International position, when these little assassins come in with machine guns and submachine guns and kill people. Murder is murder.”

Thanks, Lynne!

No future [DN]
