Advice for the U.S. Sentencing Commissioners: The Relevance of Therapeutic Jurisprudence and Its LiteratureDavid B. WexlerUniversity of Puerto Rico - School of Law; University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law March 29, 2011 Federal Sentencing Reporter, Vol. 23, p. 278, April 2011 Arizona Legal Studies Discussion Paper No. 11-03 Abstract: This short essay will be part of an issue of the Federal Sentencing Reporter devoted to recommended action for the U.S. Sentencing Commission. The present essay calls attention to the relevance of therapeutic jurisprudence to the sentencing function. It looks at some legal rules and guidelines that do not effectively motivate convicted persons to focus on the future, and it also shows how judges need guidance not only on what sentences to impose but also on the manner and process of sentence imposition.
