My latest oped tackles the misconceptions about the state of criminal justice reform today—and explores the biggest threat to prosecutorial reform.

Next week, we're hosting a training for prosecutors on crimmigration - the intersection of criminal law & immigration.
We'll explore prosecutorial tools to better shape justice for immigrants.
This issue has never been more urgent for prosecutors to understand—so join us!

As the U.S. Senate advanced the Laken Riley Act one step closer to becoming law Thursday, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty released the following statement: 🧵
“The tragic death of Laken Riley is a horrific loss, and my heart goes out to her family and loved ones. If the goal of this bill is to protect public safety, its supporters should know that it will do the opposite.”
Great statement from @HennepinAtty.
I spoke to NPR’s @hereandnow today about consent decrees in light of the DOJ consent decree in Minneapolis.

Don’t worry, you still have time to #JoinUs and Vera Institute of Justice for “Guns in the United States”, an engaging two-day virtual symposium that offers a comprehensive overview of gun criminalization and innovative responses.

As President Biden pardons his son — a private citizen — it's worth noting that *literally yesterday* Trump appointed a convicted-felon family member whom he'd previously pardoned to a major ambassadorship. I do not expect that these two stories will garner similar coverage.
Rachel Marshall retweeted
This pardon of Hunter Biden better be the first of a huge flurry of commutations. There are so many cases even more deserving than this one that the Pardon Attorney has recommended granting, and they're just waiting for Biden's signature.
I thought this was parody but I don’t think so. Can’t believe they’re still trying to blame problems on a DA who hasn’t been in office for 2.5 years…newsflash: criminal justice reform isn’t the problem.
San Francisco residents have to drive to the suburbs for holiday shopping now. Because woke-fueled lawlessness crushed our urban retail economy.
Thx @chesaboudin et al.
This is an important piece in the @MarshallProj (and I am honored to be quoted in it).

We are all so lucky to have had the benefit of @cookcountysao Kim Foxx’s leadership over the past 8 years. She has not just changed the prosecutor’s office in Chicago, but has changed the profession for the better.
