In a stunning move, a Texas House committee voted unanimously to subpoena #RobertRoberson ahead of his execution today in a last-ditch effort to save his life. texastribune.org/2024/10/16/…

Tonight, Missouri executed an innocent man.
Our hearts are with Marcellus and his loved ones.

I realize it’s unlikely, but how crazy would it be for the secret service to have to protect Trump in prison? I’m not sure that was in the job description- for anyone, including agents and the prison staff and administration! nytimes.com/2024/05/30/nyreg…

Ramiro Gonzales is the next person facing execution in Texas.
He wants to donate his kidney.
“How can I give back life? This is probably one of the closest things to doing that,” he told @keribla.
Re-upping our story on his case:

This is exhibit A for anyone who ever tells you we should abolish criminology. The blatant lying and scaremongering in this unhinged advert should be the focus of every intro to crim lecture for the next decade, not to mention 100 theses. Utterly desperate and pathetic:
FACT: London under Labour has become a crime capital of the world 🥀
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Metropolitan Police in London is overseen by the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis, who is appointed by the Home Secretary; part of the current government and party who posted this video.

#BREAKING: Massachusetts' highest court ruled today that no one younger than 21 can be sentenced to mandatory life without parole. In the last year, it is the third state to apply the brain science behind U.S. Supreme Court decisions Miller and Montgomery to those aged 18-20.

FBI just released 2022 crime stats today:
Violent crime dropped 1.7%, murder dropped 6.1%, and property crime increased 7.1%.
Keep in mind that violent and property crime rates are both at their lowest levels in over 50 years. washingtonpost.com/national/…
With all the headlines about murder and shoplifting sprees, I think people forget:
The violent crime rate is the same as in 1971. The property crime rate is the same as in 1963. We're in a fundamentally low-crime era. @CouncilonCJ's new resource: counciloncj.foleon.com/the-f…
