Case 10-1
Scott is a 24-year-old high school dropout. He has been in and out of trouble with the law since he was a teenager, committing mostly public nuisance offenses such as disorderly conduct and public intoxication. His girlfriend just broke up with him because he had no ambition in his life and she did not want to take care of him. She threw him out of her apartment. Scott just agreed to plead guilty for the crime of burglary after he broke into his exgirlfriend's car to steal the change that she keeps in the cup-holder.
-The defense attorney is worried that sending Scott to jail will only make Scott's situation worse. While his court case was pending, Scott got a job at a local grocery store and has started to clean up his act. The defense attorney would prefer that if Scott were to plead guilty to the offense, he would not be required to serve any jail time immediately. He prefers that Scott be given a chance to prove himself and only have to serve time in jail if he reoffends. This type of sentence is known as a(n) :
A) boot camp.
B) shock incarceration.
C) shock probation.
D) suspended sentence.
