We are safer with all of these people home. And as you can tell from Margarita, being home means everything to these families.
After many lawsuits & fed probe into prison conditions, Alabama will incur costs of inaction. Now slated 2 spend $1 billion addressing prison crisis & MS may follow. It’s not too late 4 MS 2 avoid this if lawmakers act now 2 reduce its dense population @jamalhbryant @CPR_MS
Praying for you @KlayThompson. Hang in there brother! You have 1 or 2 thousand 3 pt shots to make and break my heart yet again!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Mississippi failure to address #COVID19 behind bars directly impacts our ability to #flattenthecurve. There are over 205,000 admissions to jails each week. Reducing jail populations will help keep us all safer. #stopcovid19injails
MS Criminal justice officials should take immediate action 2 advance policies that will curtail the number of people entering facilities & add 2 the number of people released from them. Policies should include reductions in arrest, charges & sentencing #StopCovidinPrisons

Habitual laws add extra years, decades, even life imprisonment to prison sentences if a person has been convicted of crimes in the past. These laws directly contribute to Mississippi having the third-highest imprisonment rate in the country. #WeAllPay xitter.cf/FWDus/status/121533384…
The recent deaths in prisons across Mississippi are tragic and were completely avoidable. Mississippi prisons are in need of urgent reform to create safer and more humane conditions for those who live and work in the state’s deteriorating prisons. Learn more from a @FWDus video:
