Paying for the Past: The Case Against Prior Record Sentence Enhancements

Buch

Paying for the Past examines the neglected but critically important topic of sentence enhancements based on prior convictions in the United States. Most sentenced offenders have a prior record, and in many cases that record carries more weight at sentencing than the new crime being punished. Drawing on empirical data and rules from a number of jurisdictions, Richard S. Frase and Julian V. Roberts assess the use of prior record enhancements, theirjustification, and how they contribute to racial disparities and mass incarceration.
