I'm neutral about You Can See Everything, the Nathan Fielder documentary project where he pals around / ficks with Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes. Bright side: It's an excuse to read (or re-read) Bad Blood by @johncarreyrou.bsky.social I'd be fully on board to see a doc w/these interviewees:

Appellate judge in #Oregon said this was an "obviously improper" closing argument. "Sending a message ... is not a permissible basis for convicting a criminal defendant."

The breadth and depth of the problem is stunning. But I’m not a person who stays focused on how bad a problem is. I’m interested in what we can do about it. How do we get the numbers back up? How do we help?

20yo Oregon man spent 3+ wks in ICE custody "Status quo" orders commonly issued by Oregon judges may have led to same-day release IF his legal challenge arrived 2 hours sooner on day of arrest. It's “a race to the [Wash.] border," an Ore. judge said. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/justic...

My first story for @courtwatch.bsky.social: Immigration court filings are incredibly important right now, but they’re impossible to access online under an obscure court privacy rule. One man — and 400 volunteers — are trying to change that: www.courtwatch.news/p/the-rabbit...

The Rabbit Hole: How the search for one court record became a nationwide movement.
It’s difficult to access immigration court records under an increasingly antiquated federal rule. An army of volunteers is working to change that.

Those of us who check the Lane County jail roster daily: Rejoice! The Sheriff's Office on Tues. restored online jail viewer functionality to again allow users to see a list of those in custody. For the previous 3 days or so, info about inmates was only accessible when searching by name.
