Oh in case some of you were sitting on the fence...I would have laid money on this...
There will be more murderers to release when LWOP is overturned as cruel and unusual. If LWOP replaces the DP, it will only be a matter of time before it is ruled to be cruel and unusual.
An international judicial body has already made such a ruling. That is one reason some members of the Supreme Court want to use judicial dedcisions from outside the US to "interpret" the Constitution.
The ACLU is working to free murderers sentenced to LWOP in Michigan.
Four appeals court judges in Mississippi have stated that LWOP is cruel and unusual and there has been some legal activity against LWOP in Louisiana
Bottom line: LWOP is a smokescreen for the further glorification of murderers.
