    In the United States today, more than 2,500 individuals are serving life-without-parole sentences for crimes they committed when they were 17 years old or younger. Children as young as 13 are among the thousands serving these sentences. Lost for Life, a new film from director Joshua Rofé, produced by Ted Leonsis, Rick Allen, Mark Jonathan Harris (director of three Academy Award-winning films) and Peter Landesman, tells the stories of these individuals, of their families’ and of the families of victims of juvenile murder. The result of four years of Rofé’s intensive effort, Lost for Life is a searing documentary—one that tackles this contentious issue from multiple perspectives and explores the complexity of the affected individuals’ lives. Lost for Life refuses to give easy answers, but prompts many questions, and forces us to consider what we mean by justice, punishment, mercy, redemption and forgiveness. And this conversation is vitally important. On June 25, 2012, the Supreme Court issued an historic ruling in Miller v. Alabama, holding that mandatory life-without-parole sentences for juveniles constitute cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In arriving at this decision, the Court recognized that children are fundamentally different from adults, and the criminal justice system must treat them accordingly. Brain science has demonstrated that juveniles’ lack of maturity may include a biologically underdeveloped sense of responsibility, which may lead to recklessness, impulsivity, and heedless risk taking. Prior to this decision, in some states, certain crimes carried with them a mandatory sentence of life-without-parole upon conviction.

  • Blockchain, Crypto and Nfts Are the Risky ‘Next Generation of Value Creation’ in Sports
    4/3/2021 Blockchain, Bitcoin and NFTs are the risky 'next generation of value creation' in sports – The Athletic Blockchain, crypto and NFTs are the risky ‘next generation of value creation’ in sports By Bill Shea (/author/bill-shea/) Mar 30, 2021 135 Joining terms such as Wins Above Replacement and Player Efficiency Rating in the sports lexicon are phrases such as non-fungible token (NFT), blockchain and cryptocurrency. The language of Silicon Valley entered the sports industry this year on the back of the white- hot sports collectibles market (https://theathletic.com/2428346/2021/03/05/sports-cards- tom-brady-luka-doncic-andre-the-giant/) because of the enormous sums of money involved. Why? Simple: In an era with little or no in-game fan revenue because of pandemic health- safety protocols, concepts such as NFTs and blockchain are viewed by leagues, teams, owners and athletes as opportunities to make more money. https://theathletic.com/2484646/2021/03/30/bitcoin-crypto-nfts-ethereum-sports-business/ 1/45 4/3/2021 Blockchain, Bitcoin and NFTs are the risky 'next generation of value creation' in sports – The Athletic Fans can expect to see a growing wave of NFT promotions — would you value a bobblehead that exists solely on your iPhone? — and the possibility that future re-sale of tickets will occur on a blockchain that allows the team to get another cut of money. While the technology has been around for years, it’s only in the past couple of months that it’s widely entered both sports and the broader national culture.
