INCARCERATION REFORM
One of the major focuses of criminal justice reform is on reducing prison sentences. Typically, this means making penalties less harsh for certain crimes.
Currently, there are 124,000 people in California's prisons and about 82,000 in its jails. The reason for the high prison and jail population in the state is likely due to a "harsh on crime" mentality that argued that the more severe punishments a person faces, the less likely they'll be to commit a criminal offense. Unfortunately, that's not completely accurate, and people are subjected unnecessarily lengthy incarceration sentences.
