Crimes for which depending on a country a person could receive this sentence include murder, attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, blasphemy, apostasy, terrorism, severe child abuse, rape, child rape, espionage, treason, high treason, drug dealing, drug trafficking, drug possession, human trafficking, severe cases of fraud, severe cases of financial crimes, aggravated criminal damage in English law, and aggravated cases of arson, kidnapping, burglary, or robbery which result in death or grievous bodily harm, piracy, aircraft hijacking, and in certain cases genocide, ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity, certain war crimes or any three felonies in case of three strikes law . Life imprisonment (as a maximum term) can also be imposed, in certain countries, for traffic offenses causing death . This sentence does not exist in all countries and Portugal was the first to abolish life imprisonment, in 1884 . </P> <P> Where life imprisonment is a possible sentence, there may also exist formal mechanisms for requesting parole after a certain period of prison time . This means that a convict could be entitled to spend the rest of the sentence (until that individual dies) outside prison . Early release is usually conditional on past and future conduct, possibly with certain restrictions or obligations . In contrast, when a fixed term of imprisonment has ended, the convict is free . The length of time served and the conditions surrounding parole vary . The date when a convict is eligible for parole does not necessarily predict when or if parole will be granted . In most countries around the world, a person granted parole after being sentenced to life imprisonment is usually on parole for the remainder of their natural lives . </P>
