#i fell down the rabbit hole of researching what life without parole means

I have just been reminded that not all information exists online, even when it seems like obvious information that should be easily available. How frustrating.
Solution: ask a librarian.
#i fell down the rabbit hole of researching what life without parole means
#then i foudn out that the us is the only country in the world currently imprisoning children for life without parole
#then i found out the only 28 states have banned this practice - shockingly including my own.
#i did not expect this level of decency from my local lawmakers
#anyways what i can't find is WHEN or how or why my state banned this practice
#and i am desperately curious
#my university has a chat line to ask librarians questions and i have emailed them. with citations of the articles that tell me the ban exis
#anyways librarians are great. the chat function is also great because i would never approach a librarian in person unless i was desperate
#i am afraid of human interaction
#this is the perfect example of how research rabbit holes work
#actually even before the life without parole part i was actually researching serial killers.
#and before that it was a specific family of serial killers. because my university anthropology department is doing archaeology about them
#and emailed me a podcast about that research
#and that is where the last 3 hours of my life went
#hylian rambles
#i still have not answered my initial question about life without parole
