A young woman was found dismembered in Brooklyn. Truly awful case of what appears to be long running domestic abuse. NYPD previously responded at least 6 different times. Police don’t prevent or deter violence. They just don’t.

Los Angeles City Council passed a resolution in support of #SB57 we would have done the work on the city council to effectively implement.
The science is there.The sky has not fallen in other cities. #gatewaytocare
A Miami man wrongly imprisoned for 32 years due to "mistaken identification" was blocked from compensation.
Thomas James would be eligible for $1.6M but Florida law blocks exonerated people with past convictions.
He told @NBC6: "For someone like me, what are we supposed to do?"
