Notes
The Supreme Court has said that olnly the incorrigible children who commit murder should ever receive the sentence of life without parole (LWOP). Many juvenile justice advocates have noted that it is very difficult to say confidently that any given child really is incorrigible and so the LWOP sentence should be vanishingly rare. My remarks in the main text are intended to be compatible with this point.
