Reducing Prison Sentences

In this episode, the topic of discussion is the disparity in prison sentences for convicted individuals. Cynthia Metsker was sentenced to 12 years for the manslaughter of 42-year-old Colin Bastow. She entered a guilty plea to first-degree manslaughter and unlawful possession of a firearm. While her sentence appears just for the crime committed, her incarceration at the Washington Corrections Center for Women raises concerns. The facility is reportedly ill-equipped to offer adequate medical care and rehabilitation resources to its inmates, potentially doing more harm than benefit.
