RALEIGH, N.C. Governor Roy Cooper announced Thursday the formation of the North Carolina Juvenile Sentence Review Board.
The four-person advisory board, established by Executive Order 208, will review certain sentences imposed in North Carolina on individuals who were tried and sentenced in adult criminal court for acts committed before turning 18.
The Review Board will make recommendations to the Governor concerning clemency and commutation of such sentences when appropriate.
“Developments in science continue to show fundamental differences between juvenile and adult minds,” said Governor Cooper. “For those who have taken significant steps to reform and rehabilitate themselves, this process can provide a meaningful opportunity for release and a life outside of prison.”
