It can be hard to litigate against the BOP because of the seemingly endless resources of the DOJ. But it’s also hard because the BOP can make arguments that most of us would never even think of. interrogatingjustice.org/uncategorized/…

This is a 🧵 you should read AND do something about.

Can I be kept up to date on someone else’s case? It depends—but, if you go to court hearings, you want to keep in mind that our justice system isn’t as worried about your loved one’s case as you are. howtojustice.org/ive-been-arres…

It doesn’t have to be this way.

BREAKING: The murder victim's family in the case covered in the podcast “Serial” will have the chance to address the court in a new hearing, a court ruled. Though Adnan Syed's conviction has been reinstated for now, he will not be taken back into custody. apnews.com/article/adnan-…

Last week, a man was literally eaten alive by bugs in a Georgia jail. Our sister site, How To Justice, asks a simple but important question in its article today: What the F*** is Happening in America's Jails? howtojustice.org/going-to-jail/…

The judiciary's credibility is already eroding faster than most of us could have imagined just a few years ago. Creating separate, unelected court systems with, at best, racial overtones gives even more credence to the notion that our judicial system is drowning in politics.

The BOP announced a new (or revised) mission, vision, and core values last week. How To Justice's explainer on the announcement tells you what changed, what the changes mean, and, perhaps most importantly, whether the new changes will make a difference. howtojustice.org/i-am-getting-r…
