So people like the Boston Bomber and OKC Bomber should have been given an opportunity to be released

The gravity of a prisoner's crime would be weighed into the decision so it's unlikely that they'd have a chance of release unless they'd behaved perfectly while in prison and shown genuine progress on their rehabilitation.

I dont think this is a good way to do this though

I think a better bill would be to abolish mandatory life without parole sentences for any crime with the exception of Terroism , for Serial Killers and for Drug Kingpins and give judges the discretion in what the sentence should be, but the option itself should not be removed
