<![CDATA[The case involving Teddy Minahasa, former East Java Regional Police Chief, attracted public attention because of the death penalty charges against him due to his involvement in drug trafficking. Even though he was charged with the death penalty, in the end the panel of judges decided to sentence him to life imprisonment. This research aims to analyze the legal dynamics that occurred in this case, including the legal considerations that influenced the judge's decision to reduce the sentence from the death penalty to life imprisonment.
