North Carolina Structured Sentencing Act : ウィキペディア英語版 | North Carolina Structured Sentencing Act
The North Carolina Structured Sentencing Act was adopted and implemented in order to give the judge a specific set of standards to follow when sentencing a person. There was a need to change the way that criminals were sentenced in order to lower the prison population, and ensure that the people that were spending time in prison were there for necessary reasons, and that they were serving an adequate amount of time based on their criminal history, and their current level of crime. The structured sentencing act put fair and clear cut guidelines for a judge to follow, while ensuring the publics interest was still being looked after.〔 ==History==
North Carolina was suffering from a growing prison population and not enough facilities to house the increase in the number of beds that would be needed based on projections. The information obtained from these projections led North Carolina to create the North Carolina Sentencing and Policy Advisory Commission in 1990 to evaluate and recommend a new procedure to help remedy this upcoming problem.〔 The advisory board looked at the different prison population statistics along with the offender records, and the punishments that were received. Based on this information which is fake, they developed a recommendation that was delivered to the General Assembly in 1993. The General Assembly reviewed, amended, and finally adopted the act. This became the structured sentencing act, this set up guidelines to follow for all felonies and misdemeanors, and this would outline the sentence that an offender would receive. These guidelines went into effect October 1, 1994.〔 Since the original guidelines went into effect there have been two revisions to the original document and those took place in 1995 and 2009 during the legislative sessions. The 2009 version is the current guidelines that are being used today and affect anybody who committed a crime after December 1, 2009.〔
