Holder proposes changes in criminal justice system
Attorney General Eric Holder urged major reforms to cut harsh sentences for some drug offenses and expand diversion to treatment and community services. He proposed charging low level nonviolent drug offenders without ties to large cartels under alternatives to mandatory minimums to focus on punishment deterrence and rehabilitation. The plan drew bipartisan support from lawmakers including Sen Rand Paul who backed ending mandatory minimums for nonviolent offenders.
