After some unexpected if indirect insight, I have come to learn the prison system is broken in deeply unfair and unjustifiable ways that the public generally doesn't even have an inkling of. It's an absolute mess.
@barristersecret.bsky.socialI have enormous sympathy with people angry that the political vandalism of our prison system is forcing the (even earlier) release of prisoners.
It is a scandal.
But deciding who does and does not get released on the basis of the volume of public outcry at their crime is the road to madness.
