Abstrakt: Mr. Ben was incarcerated for 21 years on a three strikes, LWOP sentence predicated on a second degree robbery charge. In the following weeks, Harvey's unlikely path to freedom was followed by others -- for a total of 13 people serving a LWOP sentence, predicated on one or more second degree robbery charges, who were successfully resentenced between June and August of 2021. This includes a bill that removed second degree robbery from the list of three strikes offenses, and a law requiring prosecutors to resentence individuals who are serving a three strikes LWOP sentence predicated on second degree robbery.
