Too often, writes columnist Mark McCormick, prosecutors wield power to keep punishing prisoners for far too long

A few years ago, we noticed there weren't a lot of stock photos of people with physical disabilities using common home safety devices like smoke alarms and fire extinguishers. That didn't make sense to us. So we did something about it. cpsc.gov/Newsroom/Multimedia…

This damning report makes it plain: the death penalty is a racist and inhumane punishment that has no place in our society. TY @ReprieveUS for spotlighting the cruelty of lethal injections. Congress must pass our bill to end the federal death penalty. theguardian.com/world/2024/a…
Black death row inmates suffer botched executions at twice rate of whites in US

We couldn’t agree with Letcher County resident, Amelia Kirby more. Eastern Kentucky deserves more than profiting off of human misery. Read more about the @nonewbopprison work here bit.ly/3Ug5w43

A new prison in EDKY is a terrible idea. 1 more reason: there's no EDKY fed def office (i.e., no defenders able to fight the BOP's inevitable failure to abide by policies). It's not a new prob -- my Iowa-based clinic has taken EDKY cases for years -- but let's not make it worse.
