Sentencing Law and Policy: Georgia Supreme Court affirms discretionary juve LWOP sentence despite judge s statement it could not find juvenile irreparably corrupt

March 15, 2021 Georgia Supreme Court affirms discretionary juve LWOP sentence despite judge s statement it could not find juvenile irreparably corrupt In the next few months, perhaps in the coming weeks, we should be getting an opinion from the Supreme Court in Jones v. Mississippi to help us better understand if Eighth Amendment jurisprudence requires a sentencer to make a specific finding about a juvenile before exercising its discretion to impose a sentence of life without parole.  In the meantime, states continue to struggle with juvenile LWOP sentencing requirements amidst all the resentencings that had to take place after Miller v. Alabama prohibited mandatory LWOP for juveniles.
