KSUville's criminal justice policy expert, Otto Delupe, has appointed you and your colleague to the local sentencing committee. The committee is interested in reforming the three-strikes legislation and has asked you to provide a committee with recommendations for a new habitual offenders law.

Your task is to 1.) come up with a new sentencing policy for repeat offenders AND 2.) reform the current 3 strikes policy.

Aspects to consider:

• What type of offenders should be targeted? (e.g.., all felonies, serious felonies, etc.)
• What type of sentences should be imposed? (e.g., longer sentences for repeat offenders, different types of sentences for repeat offenders, etc.)
• What rules should be followed? (e.g., if you use strikes, do past property offenses count as strikes)
• What factors should constrain decision-making (e.g., should risk assessment tools be used?)
