Lots of good criminal justice reads from CCRC, Law360, and Reason
A full in-box and some surfing produced this fulsome reading list from a few sources chock full of pieces I recommend checking out:
From CCRC, "After a haul of record relief reforms in 2020, more states launch clean slate campaigns"
From CCRC, "Study: Texas diversion provides dramatic benefits for people facing their first felony
From CCRC, "A Plan to Restructure (and Revive) Pardoning After Trump"
From Law360, "Goodwin Wins Freedom For Cannabis Offender Serving Life"
From Law360, "Biden's Science Adviser Pick Could Advance Justice Reforms"
From Law360, "Public Defenders Speak Out About The Tolls Of COVID-19"
From Reason, "Civil Commitment of Sex Offenders Pretends Prisoners Are Patients"
From Reason, "Biden Says Drug Users Shouldn't Be Jailed but Won't Do Anything To Stop It"
From Reason, "Trump's Messy Pardon Spree Left Too Many Behind. Biden Must Do Better."
