How long is life in a life sentence?

Answer 1

It depends on the type of sentence given. If the sentence is determinate sentencing, then the term is 30 years. If it is indeterminate sentencing, which is used nationally and more often, it can be anywhere from 40 years to the rest of their natural life or as little as 8 years. It all depends on the level the crimes committed; federal, state or local, and in which jurisdiction the judge is presiding as well as how the judge hands down his sentences.
