A great op-ed that has it all: Kamala Harris coconut tree quotes, a scathing critique of the administration's sacrifice of freedom/safety for optics, and a refocus to the suffering in Gaza. The kids are alright.
White woman, world renowned academic, brutalised by cops in full view of video cameras and arrested. They still lied on court records about the event. Now think how often cops lie about those without similar privilege

Kudos to the @ColumbiaSpec — smart, thoughtful, direct. Bravo. Also: while I would prefer not to be cursed by God, I would also prefer university administrators not make their decisions on the basis of divine curses and questionable biblical exegesis? columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2024/0…
You have to fuck up on a truly historic level to get the NYPD to say “even we think these were meaningless arrests.” They love meaningless arrests!

Today, @premaldharia concludes our symposium on @j_simonson's *Radical Acts of Justice,* by discussing a crisis of purpose in public defense - whose workers must contend with the reality that a better world may obviate the need for their labor. lpeproject.org/blog/a-crisis-…
Today, our spring scouting report on some of the hottest LPE and LPE-adjacent articles. Congrats to all the authors on such wonderful placements 🎉 lpeproject.org/blog/the-best-…
1/2 NEW: groundbreaking report w/@RaceNYU: *Excessive Sentencers*. We use an innovative dataset -- appellate decisions -- to identify judges who imposed such lengthy prison sentences that the appellate court (2-5 judges) felt compelled to reduce them “in the interest of justice.”
Public defenders @elizaorlins & @APetrigh tell about the open secret of "justice" throughout the country People are deprived of liberty, not based on merit. But judicial fear of negative press. Story is paywalled. So Im transcribing it here:nydailynews.com/2024/03/15/int…
Most people think public defense was invented by 9 men on the Supreme Court 60 years ago. They’re wrong. Public defense was invented by women 130 years ago. Read the full story from @GalvinAlmanza: tnvge.co/uvU3SdE
“No judge has ever lost their job setting bail on someone.” A NYC judge whispered that. To a public defender. Before depriving their destitute client of freedom. This happens every day. Judges are intimidated to throw poor people in cages. Thread on a history of intimidation:
Must read from two brilliant defense attorneys. The coercive power of media on judges leads to a lot more needless incarceration.

“No judge has ever lost their job setting bail on someone.” Incredibly proud of the op-ed we published in today’s NYDN about judicial intimidation! Please check it out: nydailynews.com/2024/03/15/int…
James Crumbley was convicted yesterday for contributing to his son’s mass shooting just like his wife last month. This is your reminder that the people who will deal with this legal precedent long term are neither white nor the parents of mass shooters. motherjones.com/politics/2024/…
Happy to have co-written this piece on the recent, twisted view that transparency and accountability harms judicial independence, when in reality such scrutiny helps reveal the real sources and patterns of judicial intimidation.

Everyone deserves to feel safe in our subways, but militarizing our MTA will do far more harm than good. As a public defender I have seen firsthand that safety is achieved through providing stability. Carceral responses have proven time and time again not to serve us.

for months diaspora Palestinians like myself have been grappling with severe depression and the survivor’s guilt of not having survived anything in the first place. the fog has finally lifted; we college students sparked an international movement.
We hear you, we see you, we arrest you
My friend received this email from NYU after they called the police and arrested her lol. You rlly cannot make this up.
“In our April 18 staff editorial, we asked, ‘What is the role of the University if not to advocate for—and protect—its students?’ Today, we ask, ‘Columbia administration, what is your end goal?’” the Columbia Daily Spectator’s editorial board writes. l8r.it/zNfZ
The National Lawyers Guild (NLG) unequivocally condemns the ongoing repression of pro-Palestinian activism taking place on university campuses across the country.
White woman, world renowned academic, brutalised by cops in full view of video cameras and arrested. They still lied on court records about the event. Now think how often cops lie about those without similar privilege
DeKalb, Georgia court records show Fohlin, the Emory professor seen on video being thrown to the ground and handcuffed by an Emory police officer for expressing concern at the violent arrest of a protester, was jailed for 11 hours and charged with "Battery Against Police Officer"
I went up to Columbia last Wednesday morning, and I’ve been reporting on it since. Here’s what I saw and heard newyorker.com/news/daily-com…
We might as well cite her...
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst
what we are seeing on college campuses is just more proof that police do not keep us safe.
Now that my professional future as an academic with two PhDs was fizzling out before me, I couldn’t help but wonder if I should get a PhD in political theory
Did Chris Rufo take over @SecCardona's Twitter account? University presidents literally deploying armed forces against their own peaceful students and this is the tweet? x.com/SecCardona/sta…
We continue to follow reports about protests—including very alarming reports of antisemitism—on and around college campuses across the country. This Department of Education won't tolerate hate, discrimination, and threats of violence that target students because of who they are.

It's no surprise that Rule 404(b), or its NY analog, was bent during trial to admit essential past-act evidence. For better or worse, that happens all the time in courts around the country. What's telling is that it's this case--but not the myriad others--that gets overturned.
New York Court of Appeals overturns Harvey Weinstein’s conviction for sex crimes because prior bad acts were allowed into evidence that were not charged and that evidence of prior sexual crimes served no material non-propensity purpose. nycourts.gov/ctapps/Decisio…
I lost. I cried. But I did give it my all. And I had parents that brought me a whole brisket so I didn’t have to cook all week and a partner willing to read all my arguments and give me brilliant feedback. I’ll share my thoughts after a pity party.
manifesting good energy for my brilliant and beautiful wife @emiline129 in court today. worked her ass off for her client, as always. couldn’t be more proud.

ah, so this is a “criminal defense attorneys stay off of Twitter for the preservation of their mental health” kind of day, huh?
One of the primary functions of police is to violently crush progressive social movements. It's one of the reasons expanding the size and power of police is always authoritarian and is never an answer to inequality. *It is a key part of preserving inequality, in all its forms.*
