Looking at photos from a trip to NYC in 2019. Love the Central Park bench memorials & this was a favorite:

Outraged and Outrageous Kentucky 1940 - Costa Rica 2002 Memorial plaque on green Ce...
Looked up Norma Wikler & turns out she was exactly the kind of person I'd liked to have met.
"she was well known for her brilliant wit & sense of humor, her astounding energy, intellectual breadth, dramatic flair, & her often-zany sense of the absurd."

Here's a published version of a speech she gave (in 1989) on gender bias in the court system:

So apparently the Oregon legislature #orleg is seeking to eliminate the 180-Day Pretrial Detention Cutoff for people who have been arrested & held in jail & waiting for trial during COVID-19.
This is a bad idea, for the following reasons:
1) It’s contrary to the most recent OR Supreme Court Chief Justice Order, directing courts to “explore alternatives to current arrest and detention policies…to keep jail populations at a minimum” in the interest of public safety during the pandemic.

2)It’s contrary to speedy trial right under Article 1, sec 10, OR Constitution, the prohibition against treating confined persons w/ unnecessary rigor under Article 1, sec 13 of OR Constitution, & the right to a speedy & public trial under the Sixth Amendment to U.S. Constitution

Friday Thread on #CriminalJusticeReform in Oregon:

Yesterday ended a 20 month journey repping a young client (under 25) who started out as a giant pain in the ass & then turned into 1 of my favorite clients ever.
It started with Client who wound up facing 6 cases w/ a possible 15 convictions on the line, ranging from contempt to misdemeanors to C level felonies.

The PDs office had a conflict & so I was appointed to the case.
If PDs office had case, more than likely would've been pressure to resolve all cases with a “global” – a person pleads to some charges in exchange for state dismissing the rest. The ratio depends on many factors largest being the county charges are in & the specific prosecutor.
