I just saw an article today that said someone is serving a life sentence plus 156 years. But what is the purpose of that? Once that person dies in prison, they’re not going to keep the rotting corpse there for another 156 years…so I don’t understand. Is it just to guarantee they never get parole? If so, why not just sentence them to “life in prison, without the possibility of parole?” I’ve also heard “two back-to-back life sentences…” this isn’t physically possible, but I’m guessing it would be for the same reason?

I just like to imagine that they have freezer rooms in prisons full of bodies waiting to be disposed of in X years.
