Fresh Insights into Felony Sentencing — Glen’s August 2022 TV program and more resources

The August 2022 interview on “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” provides fresh information and insights into prison sentences.  Besides discussing several problems about felony sentencing and imprisonment, we will also discuss some solutions that deserve more public awareness, support and implementation.

Even if you are already fairly well informed about felony sentencing, you will learn a lot more from this interview.  If you are not already well informed, you will learn a lot!

An expert guest helped us explore this topic.  Nazgol Ghandnoosh earned a Ph.D. in sociology and wrote her doctoral dissertation about reducing long prison sentences.  Nazgol works for a non-profit organization, The Sentencing Project (www.sentencingproject.org), where she conducts research on criminal justice policies. She has written about racial disparities in the justice system, public opinion about punishment, and the scope of reform efforts.  She writes extensively and speaks to a variety of professional audiences.

 

Besides watching the interview video, I hope people will also read the thorough summary document I wrote because it provides links to some excellent sources of more information.
