Can someone explain to me how sentencing as a whole works? Like, is it subjective or is there a handbook that judges follow?

If basically the crimes have weight and that goes with the prison time or with the punishments that the judge dictates, it is not something random because if so it would be illegal.

If the judge takes an arbitrary time, it can be dictated as an embarrassment, therefore the culprit can go free, there is a lower limit and an upper limit in the punishments and if it goes beyond those, the crime can go unpunished for such an error.

I understand that it is not subjective but that it obeys a range of time, that is to say, all crimes have a stipulated time or a type of punishment and it goes hand in hand with its severity, therefore, if the culprit commits a crime but It shows that it was not on purpose, it can be in the lower threshold of punishment and if it is the opposite, then vice versa.

I have the same doubt because I have been a police officer for a long time and I have always seen that the sentences are different despite the fact that the crimes are similar, the only thing that changes are the judges and of course the culprits.

I am not a professional on the subject but I know that a criminal record score is taken into account, this criminal record is added directly to the final crime sentence and everything is stipulated in a time manual that comes in months.

The judges have a manual, the manual contemplates more than 250 prison ranges where a large number of crimes are taken into account, if a person commits more than one crime at the same time, the time ranges are added and thus the rank is obtained. of time the person will be in prison.

Got laid off in tech corp dev making 250-300 all in. Have an offer to join a fairly new family office investment team in PE buyouts but will be a fairly significant cash pay cut vs what I was making in tech corp dev. I’ve always been interested in doing investing. All things being equal, is there better upside to take the fam office to do PE (at a pay cut for now), or go do another corp dev job? 6-7 YOE

She has been under a lot of stress although she had many great networking calls with people. I wanted to help but can't identify what she can improve on.
