    How else are you going to inform the prison officials to keep a prisoner? The judge, BTW, can adjust a sentence over a range.

    You have given no other reason. You simply listed that it exists.

    Perhaps he should watch the movie, "The Shawshank Redemption" to truly understand? It doesn't exactly explain but two oldfarts were released on parole because they were oldfarts.

    They have served like over 40 years of their sentences.

    It's because their sentence does not require imprisonment. If it did it would be Life without parole. Because it is not, their sentence allows for supervised freedom after a period of time in prison. That's about the long and short of it.

    There is no other real reason than the one above, the stuff we talked about were benefits that society gets out of acting this way on those sentences. Your only understanding seems to be in the mercenary area. You may still dislike it because you believe that prison is for punishment, not rehabilitation, but it is what it is. The sentence simply does not require lifetime imprisonment like the sentence "Life without Parole" does.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    It was a movie, not a documentary. There are lots of very old people in jail.
    11 percent of the prison population is 56 or older.

    I know it is not a documentary. I suggested that movie to ITN in hope that he'll finally understand.
