In 1986 Congress enacted mandatory minimum sentencing laws, which force judges to deliver fixed sentences to individuals convicted of a crime, regardless of culpability or other mitigating factors. Federal mandatory drug sentences are determined based on three factors: the type of drug, weight of the drug mixture (or alleged weight in conspiracy cases), and the number of prior convictions. Judges are unable to consider other important factors such as the offender's role, motivation, and the likelihood of recidivism. Only by providing the prosecutor with "substantial assistance", (information that aids the government in prosecuting other offenders) may defendants reduce their mandatory sentences. This creates huge incentives for people charged with drug offenses to provide false information in order to receive a shorter sentence.
Although Congress intended mandatory sentences to target "king pins" and managers in drug distribution networks, the U.S. Sentencing Commission reports that only 5.5 percent of all federal crack cocaine defendants and 11 percent of federal drug defendants are high-level drug dealers. This is because the most culpable defendants are also the defendants who are in the best position to provide prosecutors with enough information to obtain sentence reductions - the only way to reduce a mandatory sentence. Low-level offenders, such as drug mules or street dealers, often end up serving longer sentences because they have little or no information to provide the government.
The U.S. Sentencing Commission and the Department of Justice have both concluded that mandatory sentencing fails to deter crime. Furthermore, mandatory minimums have worsened racial and gender disparities and have contributed greatly toward prison overcrowding. Mandatory minimum sentencing is costly and unjust. Mandatory sentencing does not eliminate sentencing disparities; instead it shifts decision-making authority from judges to prosecutors, who operate without accountability. Mandatory minimums fail to punish high-level dealers. Finally, mandatory sentences are responsible for sending record numbers of women and people of color to prison

In the federal system, there are two levels of mandatory minimums, with each level doubling for defendants with prior convictions. The first tier requires a minimum sentence of imprisonment for five years (10 with a prior felony drug conviction), and the second tier requires a minimum of 10 years (20 with one prior felony drug conviction, and mandatory life with two such prior convictions). Of that, defendants can receive a reduction in the time they serve in prison of only 54 days per year as a reward for 'good behavior,' which means they must actually serve about 85% of their sentences.
The sentences imposed in federal cocaine cases are based on a combination of sentencing
guidelines and statutory rules (referred to throughout this paper as the “federal sentencing scheme”
.
The U.S. Sentencing Guidelines (the “Guidelines” specify ranges of imprisonment based on offense
and offender characteristics. A set of overlapping statutes define the federal cocaine offenses –
possession of cocaine base and trafficking in cocaine base or cocaine powder – and prescribe
mandatory minimum and maximum penalties that may be imposed for these offenses.
These mandatory minimums establish two tiers of mandatory prison terms for first-time drug
traffickers:
• a five-year minimum sentence for individuals convicted of trafficking 5 grams of
cocaine base or 500 grams of powder, and
• a ten-year minimum sentence for individuals convicted of trafficking 50 grams of
cocaine base1 or 5,000 grams of power.
The Guidelines are based on the mandatory minimums in a way that perpetuates the 100:1
differential in the amount of powder and crack cocaine required for the imposition of a given
sentence. Thus, for instance, a first-time, non-violent offender convicted of trafficking in 15,000
grams (15 kg.) of powder cocaine or 150 grams of crack cocaine would face the same penalty range
of 151 to 188 months.
