I'll be in Huntsville, AL Sunday talking about Toforest Johnson, the outrageous injustice of his case & the making of the Earwitness podcast series that explores how he ended up on Alabama's death row & why he's still there. #deathpenalty
In Alabama, replacement therapy drugs for opioid addiction are considered prison contraband. A guard was arrested after police say she tried to smuggle in suboxone to Kilby prison. al.com/news/2024/04/a…
None of this would have happened without the herculean effort by another incarcerated citizen @SwiftJusticeIn1 who advocated for Mr. George for years. Hear him tell the story! podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/radic…

The system we use to punish people for crime is the same system that denies its own wrongs.

Sometimes I forget how much anxiety I still live with, but then today was given industrial strength Versed before a minor surgery and magically the invisible boot came off my neck. Anxiety is the devil. Silver lining: surgery went well! 🙏
@LavaForGood @bshelburne Just listened to 'Earwitness' for the 2nd time during my last roadtrip. @kayiveyforgov needs to listen to it, too: What a staggering, infuriating and ongoing injustice. #ToforestJohnson should be with his family, not on Death Row. toforestjohnson.com
"My heart aches thinking of the things I did not know when I was a juror. I am haunted by the possibility that Alabama may someday soon execute Mr. Johnson, an innocent man." A #mustread by juror from Toforest Johnsons's 1995 trial. #deathpenalty al.com/opinion/2024/0…
Hopeful that the AL legislature will also, finally, see the need for independent #PrisonOversight and introduce legislation on it this session. Long overdue. Over 100 mothers have lost their sons to homicide inside the state's walls in recent years. yellowhammernews.com/alabama-senate…
Free world food is considered contraband, part of the extortion economy in prison because prison food is disgusting processed garbage. al.com/news/2024/04/a…
30 people are on Alabama’s death row even though their jurors voted for a life sentence. Today Republicans tanked the bill that would have allowed resentencing, so they’ll likely be executed against the wishes of jurors who convicted them. al.com/news/2024/04/l…
This is absolutely miraculous news! If you haven’t yet listened to Bone Valley, subscribe & listen now. Congratulations to Leo & his family.

@USRepGaryPalmer Walmart hiked prices on its Great Value brands. The result? Its net income spiked 93% to $10.5 billion towards the end of 2023. Walmart rewarded shareholders with $5.9 billion in buybacks and dividends. Did Joe Biden make this happen?
