Description

Pennsylvania lawmakers missed a critical deadline to reform second-degree murder sentencing, sparking chaos as the Senate and House clashed over wildly different proposals—one setting a 35-year minimum, the other offering no limits and even medical release options. With the Attorney General slamming the House plan and Senate Republicans calling it a political stunt, the Governor urges unity while the Supreme Court grants a 120-day extension. Victims’ advocates, lawmakers, and prosecutors are all locked in a high-stakes battle over justice, mercy, and political theater.
