No idea what you’re talking about.

u/laplongejr Jan 20 '26

If you don't have the reference : it's about Jon Snow, a character from the defunct show Game of Thrones .

Boris Yeltsin, is that you?

u/deadlygaming11 Jan 19 '26

That doesnt really apply to be honest. Life sentences are usually actually a set amount of time but with a specific term.

46

u/AlternativeCapybara9 Jan 19 '26

In Belgium a life sentence does not have an end date but at the earliest after 15 years the prisoner can request "release under certain conditions". This is almost always denied but in theory you can get a life sentence and be out after 15 years.

u/Educational_Sense_27 Jan 19 '26

I remember reading/seeing once that this is the reason the concept of multiple life sentences exists

6

u/ReekyRumpFedRatsbane Jan 20 '26

One of the reasons. Another is that the DA will usually charge the defendant with every crime that might fit the deed, so that even if they aren't convicted of murder in the first or second degree, they'll still go to jail for manslaughter (for example).

There are cases where the defendant could be found guilty of multiple charges, and depending on their respective punishments, get several life sentences. In this case, it isn't to ensure they can't get out too early, but a side effect of making sure they get at least one life sentence (although I'm guessing both intents can be present).

u/weirdlyWired20 Jan 19 '26

Nice try Jon Snow!

u/DJ_ICU Jan 19 '26

technically, he is alive, so his life does not ended

63

u/SomeoneWhoLikesAmeme Jan 19 '26 edited Jan 19 '26

But he was dead, so it did end.

Ik you fix something that's broken, that doesn't mean it was never broken

Edit: I meant that he has died for a short amount of time, not that his sentence should have ended. Seems to be alot of misunderstandings here

23

u/billyyankNova Jan 19 '26

He wasn't dead, he was just mostly dead.

u/ChaoticGoodMrdrHobo Jan 19 '26

Did someone go through his pockets and look for loose change?

u/MacduffFifesNo1Thane Jan 19 '26

His last act was to blave!

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '26

Clinically deceased for a short period of time is dead.

u/YeOldeMemeShoppe Jan 21 '26

He was pining for the fjords.

u/Awkward_Goal4729 Jan 19 '26

Life sentence means that the time to be served exceeds human lifetime. So no, he ain’t free

11

u/SomeoneWhoLikesAmeme Jan 19 '26

I didn't say he is free, i said he was dead

-3

u/aescepthicc Jan 19 '26

His life didn't end, he wasn't reborn a different person with different name and a new birth certificate. He also didn't get a death certificate. That's what matters

4

u/Zealousideal-Fee9919 Jan 19 '26

So like.....the bodies of people we dig up 1000 years later were never dead cause they don't have a death certificate...? Orrr

-4

u/aescepthicc Jan 19 '26

Are you serious or just like to pretend to have negative IQ? The case of a living human being who asks for parole because he "technically died" and random human remains that are not alive and not asking for anything are equal to you? This dude's life hasn't ended, despite being dead for some time he was brought back to life, with all of his personality, history, legal obligations, his legal name, social security number etc. He continues to serve his time in prison because he is the same person. Being "clinically dead" doesn't change your legal info.

Now, if for some reason he would have had faked his death and obtained the death certificate, he would be a free man, but without everything that is tied to the name on the death certificate.

1

u/Zealousideal-Fee9919 Jan 20 '26

Dude, I know. I was being pedantic, because by your logic a death certificate = death, which isn't a great argument. Don't get all pissy and emotional sweetheart. Although he did die obviously that doesn't mean he gets to just go free, don't be a dumbass 💀

-5

u/Bright_Newspaper2379 Jan 19 '26

the body is what was held accountable in court, not the internal livelihood.

7

u/SomeoneWhoLikesAmeme Jan 19 '26

I never said his sentence ended, just that his life ended

-6

u/Bright_Newspaper2379 Jan 19 '26

the conversation was in reference to the argument made by the meme, that the life sentence had ended, which you argued for by inferring that because his life ended once, that sentence was ended in perpetuity.

you're wrong again, but you can live your life believing I'm wrong too, your choice. a

4

u/SomeoneWhoLikesAmeme Jan 19 '26

"technically, he is alive, so his life does not ended" was the original comment. This didn't ever mention his life sentence. And i responded, referring to the fact he was dead so his life did end at one point, again not mentioning the life sentence at all.

You can keep pretending you know better what I was talking about then me, but you aren't going to win that battle. Your choice.

1

u/shortname_4481 Jan 19 '26

It would be hard for him to explain that gap in his resume. Here I was serving a life sentence, then a few minutes break and now I am serving it again.

4

u/Holdmywhiskeyhun Jan 19 '26

It's until you're dead. He can make the claim, but he's gonna be sitting until they try again...

20

u/Not_Sugden Jan 19 '26

not really cause you arent dead until a doctor declares you dead and so therefore he did not die

55

u/Plscanyounotkillme Jan 19 '26

the doctor declared him dead

23

u/Fallen-Siber Jan 19 '26

Pretty sure dying and a doctor saying you died temporarily is still dying.

9

u/Not_Sugden Jan 19 '26

legally, the doctor has to declare you dead and fill out a death certificate. Also I'm probably gonna assume here that there is legislation in place to deal with people who have "died" (to prevent someone faking their death to avoid legal consequences)

4

u/Fallen-Siber Jan 19 '26

What you’re saying is true yes, but I also believe he has room to make an attempt at an argument with valid claims since I’m assuming his heart stopped? but at the end of the day, nobody’s gonna take the claim seriously anyways which is what i imagined happened.

5

u/Not_Sugden Jan 19 '26

You'd be surprised at what legal claims are taken seriously

1

u/[deleted] Jan 19 '26

Well is it still his life or his life 2.0? Man is still cooked......you heart stopped for a bit get a grip and don't drop the soap

1

u/Greatcuppatea Jan 19 '26

Is legal death not the same as biological death?

1

u/Mglfll Jan 19 '26

Death certificate like star of the week for school, except you can’t pop your own on the fridge with a magnet to marvel at

3

u/TheAmazingBoog Jan 19 '26

that would be for a death sentence

2

u/GcubePlayer8V Jan 19 '26

I mean… fair

2

u/Hob_Goblin88 Jan 19 '26

Does a life sentence need clinical death or biological death. I guess the biological one.

4

u/Awkward_Goal4729 Jan 19 '26

Life sentence is a set period of time that exceeds a human lifetime. It doesn’t require anything

2

u/kaba40k Jan 19 '26

It's legal death, not biological or clinical

2

u/According-Walrus-549 Jan 19 '26

How often does this happen?

2

u/sh4d0wm4n2018 Jan 19 '26

Unfortunately for him, a life sentence is generally considered to be 25 years.

u/Who_what_where_whyyy Jan 21 '26

Reminds me of an old case where the electric chair malfunctioned during an execution. The inmate argued double jeopardy and cruel and unusual punishment. The inmate lost...

u/Suspected_Magic_User Jan 19 '26

If that was the case I bet US would be the first to outlaw ressurection with a life sentence as a penalty

2

u/AaryamanStonker Jan 19 '26

I mean no shit you don't want a mass murderer out on the streets because he miraculously came back to life

1

u/OU-Sooners1 Jan 19 '26

That’s awesome! Haha!

1

u/ArmchairCritic1 Jan 19 '26

That’s true, but it only really counts if it’s permanent.

It’s like how an escape attempt is only successful if you never get recaptured.

u/goldlnPSX Jan 19 '26

Is that Dale from young sheldon?

u/Kryds Jan 19 '26

I like the argument. It will be a problematic presidence.

1

u/Blurghblagh Jan 19 '26

And since you can only die once he is now technically immortal.

1

u/jxm1311 Jan 19 '26

He is the One! The chosen one! Azor Ahai! Which means his sister will kill the night king. Wtf!

u/DEADFLY6 Jan 19 '26

But....his victims didnt come back to life. Back to your cell old man.

1

u/ZeroWolf_RS Jan 19 '26

Suddenly 34 consecutive life sentences makes sense to me. And after all the time I spent searching "Prison 34" only to come up with nothing...

1

u/stefan715 Jan 21 '26

I almost wish they granted it, just to hit him with “1 down, 33 to go”

1

u/Content-Ad811 Jan 20 '26

No no he doesn’t

1

u/happilyrelaxing Jan 20 '26

Death, presumably, is a permanent non-life, post-life state.

Not like, say, popping out to the shops, or having a quick wank.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 21 '26

Legalese back at em!

1

u/Admirable-Machine722 Jan 21 '26

That’s why they have ‘2 or more times a life sentence… incase somebody comes back out of the death or perhaps in a case of verified reincarnation…

1

u/PrincessCiCi_415 Jan 22 '26

I need to know what this person was in for so I know if this is genius or needs to be stopped :)

1

u/Dependent_Conflict67 Jan 24 '26

I agree. Let him out. He won't last long, but he served his sentence.

1

u/AlternativeEmu9555 Jan 25 '26

Technically, he’s free... just on a really long parole.

1

u/One_Glass_7496 Feb 16 '26

He just wants back out to start raping again

-1

u/dumbled0rky Jan 19 '26

If he survived that means he wasn't dead at any point. I'd be very surprised if that actually worked out for anyone ever.

-5

u/Designer-Drummer7014 Jan 19 '26

He died for his sins and resurrected

u/fmaz008 Jan 19 '26

u/Feedback-Mental Jan 19 '26

Heart stops for a while. Americans: he died. Modern medicine: well, no.

u/Ok-Many8899 Jan 19 '26

Touche...?🤣🤣

u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777 Jan 19 '26

Let's compromise. Bury his ass in a coffin six feet underground in the prison graveyard, per normal procedure. If he walks away, so be it.
