Closing #MensCentralJail and replacing it with a new jail will not make Los Angeles safer. Better solutions exist. LA County can reduce its jail population, save lives, and build public safety by investing in community-based alternatives to incarceration. latimes.com/opinion/story/…

"[T]here is value to society in limiting the number of decades a person is to be punished even for the cruelest of acts after sufficient evidence is presented that there is little risk that parole will endanger the public." Los Angeles Times⁩ editorial latimes.com/opinion/story/…

The #DeathPenalty is always inadmissible, because it attacks the inviolability and dignity of the person. I appeal for its abolition in all countries of the world. We must not forget that a person can repent and change, even up until the very last moment of their life.

These departures from Los Angeles Times are a HUGE loss & the tragic result of a reprehensible decision by the publisher. Robert Greene was one of the most respected voices nationally on #CJReform issues & helped inform thinking for decades. Now more than ever these voices are needed.

NEWS: President Biden has commuted death sentences for 37 of the 40 men on federal death row. They will now serve life sentences and cannot be executed. This is a milestone in the fight to shut down the death penalty — thank you! apnews.com/article/biden-…

We commend President Donald J. Trump for using his clemency powers to address systemic injustice and save the lives of 37 people on death row. Today’s commutations are a momentous step towards redressing the death penalty’s long history of racialized, systemic violence. naacpldf.org/press-release/…

THIS 👇👇👇 is how democracy and the rule of law die. And the silence from far too many elected officials is deafening.

Folks should watch Keri Blakinger's & crew's Oscar-nominated short doc "I Am Ready, Warden," directed by Smriti Mundhra. It is a beautiful and haunting account of those most impacted by capital punishment: texasstandard.org/stories/i-am-r…
