Big FOIA news: In a court ruling earlier this week, @theappeal and I won the release of tens of thousands of reports about jail deaths submitted to the DOJ under the Death in Custody Reporting Act. DOJ has fought to keep them secret for years. https://t.co/IpbQdApp16

So basically Trump tried to overthrow an election in broad daylight and then, from delays to the disqualification ruling to immunity, America's legal system just... let him off the hook.

HUGE decision today from the MA SJC!

BPD & @SCDAONews can't just refuse to comply with court orders to turn over discovery about whether their Snapchat surveillance suggests racial profiling. This refusal was a proper basis for dismissal! #mapoli #bospoli

🧵Earlier this month, we wrote about how New Bedford accepted payment from us for public records re: alleged police misconduct, and then said they were withholding them in full. The state issued a determination on our appeal: https://t.co/xt9t0xUVxc

Happy @BostonGlobe is citing research in support of #RTA21. Sending #EmergingAdults to adult criminal system disrupts development, leads to more crime. Props to @SentencingProj, @cfjjma for bringing objective data to the table. https://t.co/6YBakbHAOX
