HAWLEY: “Would it surprise you to learn that Mr... Stewart is a recidivist? He was — warrants issued again for his arrest just three years after you sentenced him.”

JACKSON: “Would it surprise me?”

HAWLEY: “Yeah. Would it surprise you?”

JACKSON: “You know, Senator, there is data in the sentencing commission and elsewhere that indicates that there are recidivism — serious recidivism issues. And so, among the various people that I have sentenced, I am not surprised that there are people who reoffend. And it is a terrible thing that happens in our system.”

HAWLEY: “Yeah, indeed it is.”
