An eclectic round up as summer starts to wind down
I am on my last road trip for the summer, so blogging may be light this week as I am savoring a late bit of a summer as it is starting to wind down. But I have a moment to flag here some articles and commentaries catching my eye recently:
From the Alabama Reflector, “Alabama lawmakers want to impose death penalty on child rapists, challenging precedent“
From the Deseret News, “The surprising fact about crime in America“
From External Processing, “Let’s get tough on crime by solving more crimes“
From The Hill, “Women in prisons have been left behind in criminal justice reform“
From The Marshall Project, “Trump Flaunts Pardon Rules — and Costs Victims and Taxpayers More Than $1 Billion“
From Mother Jones, “A Revolutionary Way to End the Incarceration of Girls“
From NBC News, “Florida record for executions is driving a national increase“
From The Washington Post, “The good news about murder“
