Wrote this piece before everything went to hell last night. But it's even more appropriate now. We've seen over and that heavy-handed police responses only escalate tension. We just don't ever seem to learn from it. thedailybeast.com/we-dont-need-w…
More excellent reporting from Quattrone Center journalism fellow @radleybalko as he continues his series by evaluating the #indigentdefense systems of Colorado, Connecticut, and Delaware. radleybalko.substack.com/p/the-states-o…

I’ve been on Knock LA’s admin team since 2022. I’ve coordinated skills building workshops w/ journalism orgs, overseen award winning reporting & secured major funders. Last night @GroundGameLA maliciously deleted all of my @KnockDotLA accounts. Pls read our newsroom’s open letter
.@radleybalko: "The way the department handled the incident suggests that, as with other jurisdictions, the introduction of body cameras won’t be the transparency and accountability panacea they're often touted to be." thedailybeast.com/kidnapped-teen… #UnitedStates
I wrote about how instead of becoming tools for transparency, politicians and other public officials have helped police weaponize body and dash cameras. thedailybeast.com/kidnapped-teen…
So Elon took the blue check away, turned it into an embarrassment, forced it back on some of us, and is now making us pay him to hide it. Still not giving him a dime. But you gotta respect the grift.
If @radleybalko wasn't such an indefatigable, essential journalist, he'd make a fantastic litigator. Few are better at surfacing and making simple the complex, cruel ironies of our criminal legal system, for example: radleybalko.substack.com/p/that-isnt-wh…

Book excerpt: #DeathRow Welcomes You, by Steven Hale, by @radleybalko #EndTheDeathPenalty open.substack.com/pub/radleybalk…
1: For the past week, the publication where I am senior editor, The UnPopulist, has been embroiled in a genuinely preposterous micro-tiff with The Fifth Column, a libertarian-leaning podcast. I want to give my account of why I found TFC and their fans’ posture ridiculous. 🧵
"Despite unanimous agreement by scientific bodies...that bite-mark identification is hokum, every single defendant I’m aware of who has asked a court to exclude bite-mark evidence because of the lack of scientific validity has lost." By @radleybalko: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
A court finally took notice of my reporting, @radleybalko writes—but for all the wrong reasons. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Endorse. The Fifth Column guys’ three-day tantrum in response to one sentence in my piece might be the most unhinged reaction to anything I’ve ever written. Just really weird behavior. It’s a deeply stupid conflict. But here, Shikha calmly explains why they’re wrong

Sometimes I reach ex-prosecutors who sent people to death row and they are open & thoughtful. Other times they say things like, “The only intellectual disability he has is a condition called MAH: Mean as Hell.” On Willie Pye, set to die tonight in Georgia. theintercept.com/2024/03/20/geo…

Here's Christian Zionist trap: Most protesters act in good faith. A few, as at every protest I've ever seen, are fools. Rightwing zooms in on fools. Honest protesters say, rightly, zoom-in is bad faith distraction. It is! &, "So, it must be false." Not exactly; fascism gloats.

I learned a lot of the shifting cultural realities from reading the ethnographies of @Peterkraska and *Rise of the Warrior Cop* by @radleybalko
How it started/ How it's going.
Roughly one-third of people booked into jail report an annual income below $10,000 – the median amount needed to pay a felony bail. To make it worse, many of the nearly 500,000 people currently detained pretrial are being held simply because they can’t afford money bail.

7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime. A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.” What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear A thread
@GBob21320095 @marclamonthill This is not true. Please see @radleybalko’s work in this. He disproves the misconception you’re presenting here.
But regardless of motivation, courts have been very comfortable overlooking the problems with dogs, as we see in this excellent reporting from @radleybalko washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
