Should a life sentence really mean prison for life and why?

The interpretation of a "life sentence" can vary by jurisdiction, but in general, it typically means the individual will spend a significant portion of their life in prison. Releasing individuals serving life sentences can provide opportunities for rehabilitation and redemption. Additionally, prison systems may struggle with overcrowding and limited resources, which can influence the decision to parole individuals serving life sentences.

Not necessarily. It all depends on the sentence the judge delivered. Sometimes "Life in prison' IS a lifetime spent in prison. Sometimes "life in prison" could mean for life but you might be allowed to be eligible for parole (if you keep your nose clean) after serving a minimum of 25 years. It all depends on the wording of the ruling.
