DEATH BY INCARCARATION - ASTHA SHARMA POKHAREL PART 3

 The article “Redeeming Justice” discussing the right to redemption for people serving a Life Without Parole sentence has  garnered much attention in legal circles. A number of advocates have brought several legal complaints that address this right. Astha Sharma Pokharel will discuss a complaint to the United Nations (to be filed on September 15, 2022) alleging that the United States is committing torture by condemning people to “death by incarceration” {DBI} through extreme sentences such as  Life Without Parole. Astha is a graduate of NYU Law School and a former Fellow at the Center for Constitutional Rights.
