Default Getting my head around USA sentencing.
Can anyone advise me where I can find out more on the various categories of crimes and sentencing in the USA. I am in no way a lawyer but I just want to get my head around the various charges that I read about. I appreciate that this can vary from state to state but I would like to get some basic education on the subject. One of my pp's has explained to me the 3 strike law in California and I would like to keep on learning. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Hi Rose,
There’s a lot of ways to get the kind of information you’re looking for, but you can try.:
http://lp.findlaw.com/
http://www.critcrim.org/
I have had some good experiences with those.
Good luck
Thomas
