The three strikes law is significant because when it was passed, the amount of people being incarcerated increases and the amount of time for nonviolent crimes increased as well. It related to the mass incarceration of nonviolent criminals because it primarily gave many nonviolent criminals an average of 25 upon breaking this law.
