Hudson County View By John Heinis/Hudson County View “I want to convey our strong support of S2586/A4369, which implements several of the sentencing recommendations of the Criminal Sentencing and Disposition Commission to eliminate certain mandatory minimum terms of imprisonment,” New Jersey State Bar Association President Kimbery A. Yonta wrote in a letter addressed to state legislators. “Mandatory minimum sentencing schemes have a disproportionate impact on communities of color and have resulted in New Jersey having the highest disparity in the nation between incarceration of people of color and white people. We urge this bill’s swift passage in the Legislature.”
