It depends on which state you are in. Find out what the laws are for truth in sentencing (a person must serve 75% of his sentence) vs. early release from prison due to limited state resources (it costs $30,000 per year to keep a person in prison). Find out what sentencing guidelines are in effect (are there mandatory minimum sentences, is it entirely up to the judge's discretion). A good place for such information is your local chapter of Parents of Murdered Children. They are usually the ones who lobby legislators to have such laws passed and they are the ones who protest against the release of murderers, rapistists and child molesters.

How about a report on this Kerr guy who's supposedly confessed to killing JonBenet Ramsey? That's a hot topic, all over the news right now, and it has to do with criminal justice. Did he really do it? Is his confession valid? Is the DNA evidence valid after 10 years? Or is he one of these goofy people who confess to things?
Good luck!
