🔍 Which New York judges are imposing excessive sentences? A new report from Oded Oren @scrutinize_org delves into data, finding that some lower court judges repeatedly impose prison sentences for defendants that are reduced on appeal. statecourtreport.org/our-work/analy…
This is a huge and long overdue development. No longer can a federal judge use a not-guilty verdict to increase someone’s sentence – and yes it is despicable and utterly insane that it was ever allowed in the first place.

"We are pleased to see the commission promulgating rules that align with brain science and correct fundamental injustice in our criminal legal system," says JAN Federal Dir., @JCHendrickson re: USSC's vote on juvenile sentencing & acquitted conduct rules. justiceactionnetwork.org/news/qkfiky3qa…
NEW: The Appeal has published the first national database of prison commissary prices. The project covers 46 states, revealing an exploitative system that forces incarcerated people to pay up to 5x the outside price for some items. theappeal.org/locked-in-pric…
JOB ALERT: Come work with me! The MDefenders program @UMichLaw is hiring an assistant program director to help grow and expand our innovative programming to support public defense. Details here: careers.umich.edu/job_detail/247…. Please help me spread the word.
Next week on Tues. 4/16: Hear from @DA_LarryKrasner, @innocence Co-Founder @barryscheck and others at the @nyucrimlaw Annual Conference: nyu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_e3…
2/2 Our methodology is both replicable and scalable, offering a model that can be adopted by other jurisdictions to examine their judicial systems. You can find the report and explore our findings here: scrutinize.org/excessive-sent…
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.”
Our report highlighting specific cases will be out soon, building on CIU exonerations and federal cases finding misconduct, as well as reporting by @samanthamelamed @cs_palmer @MensahDean

In VA, prosecutors force people to waive their Fourth Amendment rights when they enter into plea agreements. Police can then stop and search these individuals at any time for any reason. In Richmond, 96% OF THOSE SUBJECT TO FOURTH AMENDMENT WAIVERS ARE PEOPLE OF COLOR.
I always prefer commutations over pardons and I definitely like to see excessive sentences commuted where the law has changed but the reform wasn’t made retroactive. Unfair to make people serve a repudiated sentence they wouldn’t get today. Good on Pres. Biden for today’s grants.
A new report by @scrutinize_org & @ReinventAlbany reveals that at least 94% of written criminal court decisions in New York are not published. The report calls for written criminal court decisions to be published to improve transparency & accountability. static1.squarespace.com/static/635986e…
New report (w/@ReinventAlbany) reveals a shocking lack of transparency in New York's criminal courts: At most 6% of decisions are made publicly available; 4,250 to 54,500 decisions a year remain undisclosed. The implications for accountability and public trust are significant
