compassionate release  

Définition(s)

  • Compassionate release of prisoners is appropriate when circumstances unforeseen at sentencing make continued incarceration unjust, and when no other adequate legal mechanisms exist to effect sentence reduction. Where recognized, compassionate release may be justified by a wide variety of postsentence developments. [Source: Encyclopedia of Prisons & Correctional Facilities; Compassionate Release]
