70 criminal justice leaders sign letter rejecting AG Barr's backward 'tough on crime' at ude

Overall, crime and murder are on a national decline—

but Attorney General William Barr’s remarks to the Grand Lodge Fraternal Order of Police’s 64th National Biennial Conference suggest otherwise.

In his speech, Attorney General

Barr called attention to recently elected district attorneys reforming criminal justice systems across the country

—a movement Barr called “revolving door justice” and which he said is “demoralizing to law enforcement.”

70 leaders in criminal justice—including current and former elected prosecutors, law enforcement officials, and former Department of Justice and judicial officials—to sign onto a statement repudiating his comments.

“Hard data makes clear that too many cases come into the justice system unnecessarily, and too often incarceration exacerbates the likelihood of future criminal activity,”

a new generation of prosecutors and law enforcement leaders are making their communities safer and healthier… using their discretion to prioritize the most serious cries and move conduct better addressed with the public health responses out of the justice system.”

Barr’s remarks to the FOP play into tensions that exist between reformist district attorneys and local police unions.

Repug racist asshole Sessions was the same. Destroying the DoJ Civil Rights division, and releasing many PDs from consent decrees.

The Party of Racism's "tough on crime" bull is a euphemism for harassing, brutalizing, killing, locking up the knitters.

Meanwhile, BigFinance can steal $10Bs in wealth with no punishment, even get rewarded and bailed out.
