An especially alarming stat as more states criminalize homelessness. A reminder: Formerly incarcerated people are 10x more likely to be homeless. And, being homeless makes formerly incarcerated people more likely to be arrested & incarcerated again – it's a revolving door.
The Associated Press@AP

BREAKING: The U.S. saw an 18.1% increase in homelessness this year, with more than 770,000 people counted as homeless. apnews.com/article/homele…

When we started PFJ in 2018, we were looking for defenders who weren't afraid to take risks and innovate, and we found one with @DelawareODS. Six years on, it is so nice to see our friends in the First State get the recognition they deserve. delawareonline.com/story/news/loc…

Weekly video! You have, I'm sure, heard claims that people are coming into the country illegally and like sneaky voting, right? Turns out it's likelier a person will get *struck by lighting* than do that.

Almost 80% of forensics labs aren't independent scientific agencies---they're controlled by police. And about half of wrongful convictions involve bad science. Your weekly video is here---let's talk about unfair and uneven access to science.

The weekly video! I got to spend some time talking recently about how police spend their time, and figured it was time to remind folks that (1) most of their time is not spent solving crime and (2) it shows. Watch below for numbers!

This is a tremendous step forward in making a jury of your peers a reality. Justice shouldn't be decided only by those that can afford to serve. This will lead to more diverse juries & needs to happen everywhere. Alameda rate jumps from $15 to $100 a day. mercurynews.com/2024/08/30/six…

It’s weekly video time! And SCOTUS is thinking about whether an obstruction statute is too vague! So we thought we’d talk about a related issue: how vague state obstruction laws can actually contribute to covering up police misconduct.

Thousands of Delawareans have come out to support our vision of a bold, inclusive Delaware. There is a lot more work to do, but you have made us the frontrunner in this race to move Delaware forward.

Given the noxious story out of Baltimore---where police are complaining about a law that has children speak with a lawyer when arrested, because they can't "really interrogate" ~children~ I am replacing this week's video with the below. Check it out and tell a friend.
Emily Galvin-Almanza@GalvinAlmanza

Hey folks! It's your weekly video from @PFJ_USA . This week we're talking about what happens when police interrogate kids...and the summary version is that the info that comes out of accused kids should probably not be used, because they falsely confess ALL. THE. TIME.

Your weekly video is here! This week: material witness warrants. Did you know that in all 50 states, prosecutors can jail not only accused people, but victims and witnesses they deem noncooperative?
