Jailhouse

I often read that judges are sparing on jail terms and you see comments about that, such as:
"isn't long enough for the bastard"

So, have you done time? Does it change people? Does it change for the better?
and anything else you may like to contribute.

We are not living in America where they lock away people for the rest of their lives.

Eight years for a non premeditated murder, think about locked up for eight years, a big chunk of your life.

Now if you plan to to kill your partner etc, that's different. I hope you rot in jail.

It would be severe. But the victim has lost more than eight years?
