(Benefit 3/3) Resentencing ultimately saves taxpayer dollars since it diverts costs from unnecessary, punitive, and expensive incarceration in favor of other public safety needs. The CA Dept of Finance estimates the current per capita cost of incarcerating a person in California is $133,110/yr.

(Benefit 2/3) Resentencing can promote public safety within prison walls. Dozens of people who have been resentenced and released have mentioned that they became motivated by others to further their education, seek out rehab programs, and contribute back to their communities. (For The People)⁠

(Benefit 1/3). Resentencing can strengthen public safety. Longer sentences do not deter crime. Resentencing people who can be safely released can actually lead to safer communities by freeing up additional resources for investments in programs that address the root causes of crime. ⁠

Resentencing is a sentence modification. In California, the CA Dept of Corrections & Rehabilitation, Board of Parole Hearings, the District Attorney, the Attorney General, and the County Sheriff can refer someone who is currently incarcerated for resentencing. #criminaljustice
