where i live, there are new mandatory sentencing laws. one is if you are caught driving under the influence, they can take your car away. if you are caught driving under the influence with children in the car, it’s a mandatory four year jail term.
on one hand, mandatory sentencing prohibits certain people from getting a light sentence because of their status, position, or who they’re friends with. on the other hand, there is no use having judges if their hands are tied regarding the sentence they can impose.
