NARRATIVE – ALLOCUTION – Express remorse, while still understanding the victim’s pain, suffering, and how it has impacted them.Agree with the court as to the seriousness of the crime, without minimizing it. Expand on this topicWhat in your life brought you to this moment, what happened that caused you to do this?What has this experience taught you? Did it bring up moments from your past?Explain to the Judge that you have a plan (only if you do),to start making this right with those you have victimized –or if you have already started, what are they,no matter how small those efforts have been?Shows thoughtful actionable plans to emerge successfullyIt helps readers empathize with the defendant as an individual - not as a felonProvide credible for the judge to provide leniency ALLOCUTION –(1) a sincere demeanor;(2) a discussion of what “taking full responsibility” actually means to the defendant; (JUDGE ASKS LIFE IN PRISON?)(3) an acknowledgment that there are victims (e.g., even when the PSR indicates “no identifiable victim,” as it does in most drug cases);(4) A more impressive Allocution details how the defendant’s criminal conduct affected the victims.(5) an expression of genuine remorse;(6) a plan to use prison or probation time in a productive manner;(7) a discussion of why the defendant wants to change his or her criminal behavior; and, perhaps most importantly,(8) information that helps humanize the defendant and the defendant’s role in the crime.
