¶2[¶ 22JSDCL 23A-43-4 requires the trial court to consider several factors including “the nature and circumstances of the offense charged[.]” I specially concur to point out that the impact of a crime on the victims is inextricably connected to the nature and circumstances of the offense, particularly in post-conviction analysis. It was not improper for the trial court to consider the interests of the victim’s family in conjunction with this mandatory factor.
