Lawyers created the Court system for the benefit of lawyers and judges (née lawyers). Proof: the more you pay a lawyer, the better your odds whether guilty or innocent. Every innocent person in prison was put there by a lawyer (prosecutor).
Lawyers can fix this broken system thru ethics enforcement that disbars prosecutors for any instance of misconduct. This won’t happen bc what’s better than fixing a problem? Advertising that you’re fixing a problem.
Black people are props in their photo-ops, galas, conferences, and fundraisers that falsely promote the narrative that ‘the truth shall set you free.’ The math says otherwise.
Hold police and prosecutors accountable for false imprisonment in real time.

The #BreonnaTaylor settlement reforms do not address the core police abuse of power that led to her murder. Knock vs No-Knock is of no concern if the search warrant never should have been granted at all. (Thread)
The original sin of nearly all wrongful arrests & extra-judicial killings is that probable cause is whatever the police say it is. We do not have a mechanism to force police to mind their own business unless facts support intervention.
