In 2006, the United States Sentencing Commission1 undertook a review of the impact on federal sentencing of the Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Booker.2 In March 2006, the Commission published the results of that review in the Final Report on the Impact of United States v. Booker on Federal Sentencing.3 As part of that report, the Commission performed an analysis of data from the federal courts to examine whether differences in the length of sentences imposed on offenders were correlated with demographic characteristics of those offenders. Based on continued interest in this issue, and in response to specific requests to update its prior analysis, the Commission has now repeated the analysis used for the Booker Report with additional data and has also developed a second methodology to examine that data. This report presents the results of that work. This report focused on three separate time periods which together spanned the time between May 1, 2003, and September 30, 2009. The Commission found a correlation between the length of sentences imposed on some groups of offenders and the demographic characteristics of those offenders. These differences were not present in all time periods under study and differed in magnitude in the time periods in which they were observed.

This study examined the effect of the Booker decision on federal sentencing. In 2005, the Supreme Court ruled in U.S. v. Booker that the federal sentencing guidelines were no longer mandatory merely advisory, restoring judges' discretion in sentencing. To assess the effect of this decision, United States Sentencing Commission (USSC) data from 2002 through 2008 was retrieved, assessed, and analyzed to ascertain possible trends for federal sentencing.

United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005), was a landmark Supreme Court Case that made the Federal Sentencing Guidelines advisory rather than mandatory. Prior to this ruling, U.S. District Judges had limited options if they wanted to sentence outside of the guidelines (also called a departure). The purpose of this study is to examine what effect, if any, an advisory guideline has had on sentence length in the District of Connecticut. It is this writer's belief that sentence lengths for the crimes prosecuted in Connecticut U.S. District Courts have dropped since the Booker ruling in 2005. The reasoning for this is, while Judges wanted some guidelines in place, they did not want to lose their ability to form appropriate sentences based on the facts presented to them. The nature of the mandatory sentencing guidelines created limitations on the Judge's ability to use their years of training and education to impose just sentences. This hypothesis was evaluated two ways. First, there was a comparison of the mean sentence length for all crimes prosecuted in the District of Connecticut prior to the Booker decision (1999-2004) and after (2006-2011). Second, there was a comparison of the mean sentence length for drug and firearm cases during the same two time periods. A third hypothesis was evaluated. Given that the guidelines were intended to create parity in sentencing it should be expected that reduction of mean sentence lengths will remain consistent during the studied timeframe for white and black defendants. The results of the data analysis showed a reduction in mean sentence length, a reduction in firearm and drug sentence length overall, and a reduction when comparing black and white sentence length. The results in this study could be used to improve sentencing outcomes for defendants who are sentenced under the guidelines.

This paper provides an overview of the federal sentencing system. For context, it first briefly discusses the evolution of federal sentencing during the past four decades, including the landmark passage of the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 (SRA),1 in which Congress established a new federal sentencing system based primarily on sentencing guidelines, as well as key Supreme Court decisions concerning the guidelines. It then describes the nature of federal sentences today and the process by which such sentences are imposed. The final parts of this paper address appellate review of sentences; the revocation of offenders' terms of probation and supervised release; the process whereby the United States Sentencing Commission (the Commission) amends the guidelines; and the Commission's collection and analysis of sentencing data
