California’s Senate Bill (SB) 923 attempts to change protocols. The genesis of legislative reform is often found at the crossroads of science and compelling cases indicative of criminal justice problems that need to be fixed. This post is a deeper dive into criminal justice reform on a more granular level. Topics about criminal justice include Indefinite Immigration Detention and America the Confiner, which references the Pretrial Integrity Act of 2017, a bill that may make material changes in the world of money bonds. I’ve posted on the subject of incarceration living ranging from the Loss of Compassion for senior inmates to the link between Pork Bellies and Private Prisons. In past posts about reentry, I looked at the Ban the Boxbill and jobs as examples of what reentering citizens face. When breaking it into components, I classify prison reform into three broad categories: criminal justice and procedures, incarceration living, and reentry. I cannot understate the wide range of subjects raised by the words prison reform. ![]()
