Reply to comment by kw0711 in [OC] The United States Prison Crisis by cbarrettg

How about people obey laws no matter how ridiculous they are, and know that they can vote to instill what they desire, mainly using drugs it seems…

“Wrongful imprisonment” is a common term and depending on where your collective news about the US comes from it seems that due to advances in DNA testing and uncovering of methods and processes used in the 80s, 90s and 2000s, someone is being released every other month for a crime they did not commit.

I’m not clear on what the last line about drugs in your comment is supposed to mean as tampering with evidence or planting it are commonly responsible for wrongful imprisonment cases. Please Google Zach Webster, and he’s by far not the only one.

Police and FBI planting drugs on innocent people or in their homes is a thing.
