@basiaszendrei1603 No I haven't.
In the UK, the sentencing for murder is governed by strict laws because it carries a mandatory life sentence. The "tariff" refers to the minimum term a convicted murderer must serve before they can be considered for parole.
The Tariff (Minimum Term)
The judge sets the minimum term, often referred to as the "tariff," which is the number of years the offender must serve before being eligible for parole. It considers:
Aggravating factors (e.g., premeditation, use of a weapon, particularly brutal or sadistic killing).
Mitigating factors (e.g., lack of intent, provocation, or the offender's youth).
If you go to the sentencing council you will see their starting tariff for example, 12 years for anyone under 18, and the effect of aggravating and mitigating factors on the minimum tariff.
