A prosecutor can knowingly hide evidence, convict an innocent person, and never be sued for it. Iris Eytan wants to end that — and founded Protect Ethical Prosecutors to do it. My conversation with her is out now. Link in comments below. #CriminalJusticeReform #WrongfulConvictions

I'm writing a non-fiction book that involves criminal justice data. Every time I try to link to the original data source from a federal agency... it's been deleted or "is no longer available." How's your morning?

Eve Hanan is Associate Dean for Faculty Development and Research, UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law. Her law review article "Terror and Tenderness in Criminal Law" blew my mind and made me scramble to put it back together. Eve was a guest on Just Justice, where we had a chance to talk about it.

If the pardon process used to be "bonkers" when it was actually being followed, I wonder how law professor @rachelbarkow.bsky.social would describe it now. You can find Just Justice wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Kelly Savage-Rodriguez defines survivor. She survived years of abuse as a child and later in her marriage. She survived criminal prosecution for the murder of her son -- a crime she did not commit or intend.

This weekend, why not listen to the newest episode of Just Justice. (Note: this episode has graphic descriptions of abuse). Alex Bailey from the Sentencing Project shares how a group of motivated women can move mountains or, in this case, the entire OK govt to help women impacted by DV.

I'm writing holiday cards for people who are incarcerated through Books Behind Bars NJ. It's a way to tell people in prison that they are not forgotten. It's small things that make our world a better place. There is still time if you want to join me!

Today President Biden pardoned two turkeys, Peach and Blossom. Next up should be the 40 humans on federal death row. Because their fate under the next administration could not be more clear. Thanks to @aclu.bsky.social for the graphic.
