Last summer, we set out to find out how much cities spend on settlements for police misconduct -- bills often footed by taxpayers. We got data from 31 cities. We also found that the data is basically impossible to compare across time or city. 53eig.ht/3qCulG2

At today's hearing on NYPD protest lawsuits, Judge Colleen McMahon made clear she wants these cases to move FAST. She's combining them, at least for discovery purposes, and setting a discovery deadline for the end of the year.

One of the many barriers to the legal profession is the unpaid summer internships we need to fill out our resumes. We are trying to help by raising money to help formerly incarcerated law students pay their bills while they intern. Donate here! givegab.com/teams/filsaa/

Please amplify and support Survived & Punished NY demand for Archive: Governor Andrew Cuomo to grant clemency to survivors subjugated to gender-based violence in prisons. His history of abusing women staffers is inseparable from his punishment of Black and brown women who defend themselves from violence.
