If we're incarcerating people to help them change their behavior, then we have to do everything possible to make it easier to change. Prisons can handle in-person visits. Why can't jails?
If you've got a staffing shortage, maybe it's time to look at your salary schedule. #JusticeReform

In no small part thanks to qualified immunity, it is nigh impossible for victims of government abuse to seek recourse. The "Anti-Weaponization Fund" is not reform; it is a mockery of justice. https://reason.com/2026/05/22/trumps-anti-weaponization-fund-is-built-on-a-contradiction/

CNBC reports: Federal executions are expanding methods, raising serious questions about justice. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche restarted federal executions under the Trump administration, controversially adding firing squads, electrocution, and gas asphyxiation due to drug shortages. Nine new death penalty cases are authorized. Learn more about this significant shift.

Denver-born U.S. citizen Brian Morales, 25, was allegedly deported to Mexico after a traffic stop in Texas despite claiming proof of citizenship at home. DHS disputes his account, stating he admitted to being a Mexican national who entered illegally. This marks another troubling incident amid reports of U.S. citizens wrongly detained, deported, or even killed by immigration officers under Trump's second term. Rep. Joaquin Castro warns this reflects escalating anti-immigrant rhetoric ignoring due process. Morales, who doesn't speak English, was born in the U.S. but raised in Mexico, legally crossing the border with his birth certificate. Want to see how this impacts civil rights?

The Trump administration is reviving arguments from Confederate officer Alexander Porter Morse, a key advocate for the "separate but equal" doctrine and legalized segregation, to challenge birthright citizenship. Morse's 1896 Supreme Court arguments aimed to exclude Black and Chinese people from citizenship, and today's administration invokes his reasoning to argue the 14th Amendment doesn't apply to children born to undocumented or visa-holding immigrants. Critics warn this case, built on a racist foundation, could render hundreds of thousands stateless. Legal scholars caution this revisits a dark history.

Tennessee grandmother Angela Lipps spent over five months in jail after AI facial recognition wrongly linked her to bank fraud crimes in Fargo, North Dakota, where she'd never been. Police relied on a partner agency's AI system and additional investigative steps before issuing a warrant, but Chief Zibolski admitted "part of the issue" was overreliance on flawed AI data. Despite promising operational changes, police stopped short of a direct apology. This case highlights risks of AI facial recognition—false identifications can ruin lives and expose systemic flaws in law enforcement.

The Trump administration has launched investigations into race-based admissions at Stanford, Ohio State, and UC San Diego medical schools, demanding documentation on applicant data, standardized test scores, and race considerations dating back to 2019. This move escalates the administration's racist campaign targeting selective universities accused of violating a 2023 Supreme Court ruling banning affirmative action. Critics argue this pressures institutions to eliminate diversity considerations, undermining access for underrepresented groups. Ohio State assures compliance, calling the investigation routine.

🧵 2/2: following the release of the #documentary and with the impending spotlight of the #Oscars, the #Alabama #prison system saw it fit to throw all 3 #whistleblowers in solitary confinement early January. Two of them including legend Kinetik Justice remain there. Call Kilby Correctional Facility now & make some noise! https://www.nomorealabama.com/take-action
🧵1/2: Watch for free the #Oscar nominated #documentary The #Alabama Solution, a 6-year investigation in US prisons filmed from the inside. The scale of #humanrights #abuse, #torture & murder (not an overstatement!) by state violence is off the scale, only balanced by the heroic resolve of whistleblowers! #justicereform now!
https://www.hbomaxfyc.com/title/the-alabama-solution (code: dZYUH9WHNswz)
🧵 2/2: ... The #Alabama Solution tells the story of human resilience & hope, told through the absolutely heroic efforts of inmates/activists Melvin Ray, Robert Earl Council & Raoul Poole, who after the film release, were punished for #whistleblowing & put in solitary confinement where they remain. Their struggle mirrors that of #freedomfighters in South Africa, enduring murder & torture for speaking up. Watch the film & support them here 👉🏽
As a criminologist, Dr Hayley Passmore encourages us to be critical consumers of justice-related media. 📰⚖️
We often see "punitive" and "tough" approaches marketed as the only way to stay safe, but the research suggests otherwise. Real, long-term safety comes from addressing the social determinants of health and ensuring people have the support they need to live stable lives before they ever reach the justice system.

A vital reminder from justice health researcher Dr Hayley Passmore: "Prison health is public health." 🏥⚖️
The justice system shouldn't be a black hole for healthcare. Since people cycle between prison and community settings, their well-being is a fundamental part of our collective public health landscape.

"It’s as simple as asking someone what their needs are and then providing an accommodation."
Dr Hayley Passmore shares a striking example of how neurodiversity-informed practice works in the real world. By identifying a sensory aversion to a dish sponge, prison staff were able to prevent behavioural incidents with a simple £2 dishcloth.
When we support sensory and developmental needs, we create better outcomes for the whole community.

In the youth justice space, "prison health is public health." But Dr Hayley Passmore’s research shows we have a massive hurdle to clear first: basic awareness.
Her survey found:
⚠️ 20% of youth justice workers hadn't heard of Autism
⚠️ 22% hadn't heard of FASD
These frontline professionals are working with neurodivergent populations daily. They deserve the skills and information to support these young people effectively.

More evidence of Trump's racist DOJ policies.
Trump’s DOJ is recommending just one day in jail for the ex-Louisville detective convicted of violating Breonna Taylor’s civil rights—despite criticism from many who say this token punishment ignores her tragic death and signals a retreat from broader police reforms. While the officer didn’t fire the fatal shots, the raid remains a flashpoint in policing and racial justice debates. Will this shift end meaningful accountability, or is it just another turn in an ongoing fight?
