text: "Our criminal legal system is largely unprepared to respond effectively and transparently to the rapid spread of the virus behind bars. As of August 31, the United States has recorded nearly six million cases and more than 180,000 deaths due to COVID-19. While the virus looms large across the country, it poses a dire and acute threat to our most vulnerable populations, particularly older adults and those in close, unsanitary quarters such as America’s jails, prisons, and detention facilities. These facilities do not exist in a vacuum: staff and people who are justice involved enter and exit jails and prisons every day. Approximately 200,000 people are booked into and 200,000 people are released from American jails each week. With this level of churn, it is impossible to prevent spread from communities into facilities and vice versa."
Remember COVID-19 and how fucking awful and terrifying it was and how little we supported people, families, and communities--let alone how much we failed people in prisons and jails, including those presumed innocent? Nice dystopia we got here #abolitionsky www.vera.org/news/covid-1...
