Texas passed an “open discovery” law after a prosecutor’s failure to disclose exculpatory evidence sent an innocent man to prison for 25 years. Then the perpetrator committed a second murder. Now a Texas prosecutor calls for discovery reform in NY State. at.law.com/wcfa9c?cmp=sha…

For decades prosecutors have manipulated lax bail and discovery laws in New York State to drive mass incarceration. This is the reason we need to change the laws. TBH prosecutors shouldn't even be at the table on criminal justice reform.

Today the Daily News, joined the NYT in supporting discovery reform. Every DA across the state is against it, because they want to withhold information. Question to DA candidates in Queens. Will you support S1716/A1431 which would allow for open, early, automatic discovery?

Not only Jane Doe but the countless other women detained and incarcerated in jails and prisons across the country who are sexually assaulted. #MeTooBehindBars is at crisis levels in this country but because it happens in jails and prisons no one wants to talk about it @USCCRgov twitter.com/LegalAidNYC/st…
