defendant score

Read a random definition: caucus

A quick definition of defendant score:

Defendant score: A number that shows how serious a person's criminal history is, based on an established scale. It helps to determine the severity of the defendant's past crimes. This is different from a crime score, which measures the seriousness of the current crime being charged.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A defendant score is a number that is determined by an established scale, which indicates the seriousness of a defendant's criminal history. This score is used to help determine the appropriate punishment for the defendant.

Example: If a person has a history of multiple convictions for theft, their defendant score will be higher than someone who has never been convicted of a crime before. This higher score may result in a longer prison sentence or more severe punishment.

Explanation: The defendant score is used to help judges and lawyers determine the appropriate punishment for a defendant based on their criminal history. The higher the score, the more serious the defendant's criminal history is considered to be, and the more severe the punishment may be. This helps ensure that punishments are fair and appropriate for each individual case.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
