Listening now to a phone call from a juvenile lifer in Michigan. Now 41. In since 16. Should have been resentenced 5 years ago. "Its a scary thing. When other people inside pass, you're expected to move on. But these people become your family. Nobody deals with loss like that."
He just found out on one his sisters died from COVID on Sunday. "Not only am I losing family inside of here, I'm losing family outside. And there's nothing I can do about it. It's really hard to communicate with my family. COVID-19 is running rampant in here. They worry so much."
There are 200 people sentenced as juveniles to life without parole waiting in Michigan to be resentenced. After the Supreme Court ruled the sentence unconstitutional, Detroit prosecutors filed to reseek life in appx 60% of cases. Now all resentencings are even more on hold.
