#iCare4 My husband, Jason. He was sen. at 18 to LWOP 4 a crime 2 others committed. He missed his lil girls whole life, our life together, & now his grandbabies. After 25yrs he deserves to go home!! He has an amazing ❤, loves history, & would be an asset to community.
Many FL prisons are so infested with rats & roaches they crawl on the incarcerated as they try to sleep. Droppings of both trigger asthma & other serious illnesses. This, & no AC in 75% of FL prisons, could drive you mad! @FL_Corrections clean up your #RoachHotel! #BeatTheHeat
We keep regurgitating what has already been said. We keep seeing studies that support what we know, yet leaders continue to do wrong because it benefits the pockets & cruel hearts of the ruling few. When you know to do right but do wrong, it is sin in the eyes of God.
This is not a political problem, this is a power problem. This is a poor people problem, this is a illegal problem with in our own ILLEGAL SYSTEM! THIS IS A SHIT SHOW THE WORLD CALLS JUSTICE!!
#DrPetterNavarro.... I know nothing about you but I find it interesting that you think the unlawful acts of our government has anything to do with a political party! People are being imprisoned around the clock for profit in every state across the US.
No one in power EVER CARES where the truth lies just 100% conviction rates, forcing guilty pleas for plea deals or threats of worse if you choose to fight. Lives are thrown away everyday by those in power and IT CONTINUES decade after decade with no laws changed to protect anyone
See this thread I’m a part of right now is why I don’t belong to groups/orgs. No one is truly ready to admit how sick the idea of placing a human inside a cage is when they make mistakes because of trauma. We keep building more cages and having more trauma. It’s an endless pit 1/
They do this to children. Children!!!! Data has proven that our system doesn't work. They need more programs to prepare these men and women for reentry and to transition back into society. Could you imagine being locked up for decades as a child and being released with no guidance? @FOX13News@BayNews9@NewsNation@WFLA@TampaTimes
Seems there may need to be a voice for the Police K-9 as well. This is unexcusable! How can anyone be so careless with lives? When will those who are sworn to protect be held accountable?

What about our loved ones in Prison⁉️ We have people dying in our prisons‼️2 that I know of within a week💔 It’s a crime to leave an animal in a hot car, but we don’t AC our prisons and our loved ones are suffering terribly ‼️ @BeckieSirolli @RepMcClain 🙏🏻
"This is inhumane … You feel like you’re dirt, like you’re nothing."
The dangers of heatwaves inside prisons cannot be overstated — and the outdated infrastructure of these facilities will only make living conditions worse as the effects of climate change become more apparent.
It is SO SAD that these deaths- that could be prevented. Keep happening in the US prison system. States need to do better. All of the $$$$$ that is allotted to run these prisons- you would think that AC would not cost that much.
HUMANS are housed in prisons.
One of our biggest issues in society is this "revolving door," where too many men and women are being released from jails and prisons worse off than when they went in. They lose homes, families, jobs, and self-worth during their incarceration, with very few resources upon release. Law Enforcement gets thrown into the mix, and their resources are also limited. There ARE programs, but not nearly enough and certainly not in every facility. We need to duplicate the ones that are effective and make them mandatory, with oversight committees that include members of the public and prison reform activists, NOT appointed political hacks!
I'm NOT soft on crime, btw...but even the most violent offenders have a reason for their actions and behaviors. We have to keep society safe. Certain crimes deserve the most severe punishment. But provide mental health and drug addiction services for incarcerated persons, in addition to education and training opportunities, religious/faith community support (like God Behind Bars), relationship counseling, and "how to make it on the outside" classes. Even if they'll never be released because of the crime(s) they committed, work toward the goal of reform.
Last thought...sentencing must be fairly applied, and it's not. We have overcrowded jails and prisons...how many inmates committed non-violent "victimless" crimes, have paid their debt to society, and should be released. How many shouldn't be incarcerated in the first place?
Sorry this is long, but it's an issue that I don't have the opportunity to speak about as much as I'd like.
