In the case of cruel and unusual punishment--I think the witness last time talked about a woman who shouldn't have been there in the first place—by putting in this law that says that someone would never get out before 25 years, might a judge be forced to say, “Under the circumstances of this murder, that would be cruel and unusual punishment, and I can't now convict her, although I would if I knew that there was a chance after 15 years”?
