This Amended Decision is being filed to correct the error in the original Decision filed on April 2, 2018. On page 16, line 3, the word “to” at the end of the line is hereby omitted. Therefore, the first complete sentence on page 16 should read as follows: “Juvenile offenders in Rhode Island who deliberately and with premeditation shoot and kill another person, although sentenced to two statutorily mandated consecutive life terms, are nevertheless legislatively entitled to the normal benefits of a parole process which entitles them to be considered for release after having served 30 years.” The remaining contents of the Decision filed on April 2, 2018 remain the same.
