Latina/o/s and sentencing disparities  

Définition(s)

  • There is lingering debate as to whether or not the disproportionate sentencing of non-White convicted criminals to incarceration and for longer periods of time is due to legal or extralegal variables. Some investigators assert that much of the racial/ethnic disparity in criminal sentencing is accounted for by legal factors such as prior record, type and seriousness of offense, bail/bond amount, public defender versus private attorney, and so on.
