Thank you.
Something you just said just brought back to mind another point of yours. You spoke about racial and ethnic minorities experiencing more disparity when it comes to minimum sentencing. Can you talk about that as well, please?
Also, in your study, have you noticed that these mandatory minimum sentences are applied more to those people in financial difficulty, in cases where it's easier for them to just plead guilty? We've seen that happen; I practised as well, and I often saw these things.
If you could please talk about that, thank you.
