Abstract

The Center for Justice and Human Dignity hosted the Rewriting the Sentence II Summit at George Washington Law October 17-18, 2023. This article reviews the presenters’ key comments and the leading insights set forth throughout the Summit regarding sentencing reform and the expansion of alternatives to incarceration. Notably, the sessions included the participation of directly impacted individuals alongside judges, prosecutors, and academics. Keynote speaker Dr. Alisha Moreland-Capuia, M.D. discussed trauma-informed systems change. Various federal and state judges shared their experiences in establishing new alternative to incarceration programs within their courts, exercising judicial discretion, and incorporating compassion and humanity in sentencing. Prosecutors discussed their own experiences of pursuing alternatives to incarceration in appropriate cases, and how their views have evolved. Judge Nancy Gertner presented a critical analysis of the federal sentencing guidelines and their effect on sentencing outcomes. Panelists also discussed current research findings on recidivism reduction, the modern landscape and implications of electronic monitoring, and the multitude of challenges facing jurisdictions in implementing more effective approaches to public safety across all stages of the criminal legal system. The Summit featured speeches from Federal Bureau of Prisons Director Colette Peters and the Chair of the U.S. Sentencing Commission, Hon. Carlton Reeves.

对 "改写刑期 II "监禁替代方案峰会的思考
正义与人类尊严中心于 2023 年 10 月 17 日至 18 日在乔治-华盛顿法学院举办了 "重写判决 II 峰会"。本文回顾了演讲者在整个峰会期间就量刑改革和扩大非监禁刑罚提出的主要意见和见解。值得注意的是,与法官、检察官和学者一起参加会议的还有直接受影响的个人。主旨发言人、医学博士阿丽莎-莫兰-卡普亚(Alisha Moreland-Capuia)讨论了以创伤为基础的系统变革。多位联邦和州法官分享了他们在法院内建立新的监禁替代计划、行使司法自由裁量权以及在判决中融入同情心和人性的经验。检察官们讨论了自己在适当案件中采用监禁替代方案的经验,以及他们的观点是如何演变的。南希-格特纳法官对联邦量刑指南及其对量刑结果的影响进行了批判性分析。小组成员还讨论了当前关于减少累犯的研究成果、电子监控的现代格局和影响,以及各司法管辖区在刑事法律系统各个阶段实施更有效的公共安全方法时面临的诸多挑战。联邦监狱局局长科莱特-彼得斯(Colette Peters)和美国量刑委员会主席卡尔顿-里夫斯(Carlton Reeves)阁下在峰会上发表了演讲。完整的会议录音可在 www.cjhd.org/summit 上找到。
