After Alabama failed to launch medical marijuana for the third time, it was fair to ask: Will legal marijuana ever come to Alabama? But here’s the reality. It’s already here – or something very much like it. 🧵 al.com/news/2024/04/i…

Now for a 🧵 about 🍃 + an The Examination 🔍 Without much notice or scrutiny, it is now possible to buy THC products in most US states - including in places like Alabama, where marijuana remains illegal and can lead to jail time.

Alabama still plans to execute this guy, but DNA from '92 now matches someone else in prison. State says OK, she maybe slept with that other guy first...then invited in some homeless guys who raped her and left no DNA. Judge: “the theory defies logic, common sense, and science.”

"It is puzzling that in this case, the State downplays the significance of the new DNA evidence when the State otherwise relies on similar DNA evidence to secure convictions and clear cold cases," wrote a federal judge. Great reporting on injustice in an AL #deathpenalty case.

A man (another one) who is clearly innocent sits on Alabama's death row. 30 years after his conviction, DNA evidence points to someone else. Alabama wants to execute him, anyway. al.com/news/2024/10/w…

Alabama finally lost it with the broken parole board, Dem & GOP lawmakers grilling the chair over why hardly anyone gets out -- despite rules saying most should be paroled. “Either the process is broken or her decision-making process is terrible." al.com/news/2024/10/a…

Alabama frequently denies parole to people who are in minimum-security lockup, working regular jobs & walking around in regular clothes or fast-food uniforms each day, arguing that they’re safe enough to work, but not to sleep at home. (By Ivana Hrynkiw Shatara) al.com/news/2024/12/a…
