The purpose of this blog is to enhance the overdue discussion on the much-need reformation and renovation of our nation's criminal justice system.  We, in the land of the free, incarcerate a higher percentage of our population than any other nation.  We do so at great expense.  We do so when there is no connection to incarceration and rehabilitation, and prolonged incarceration only increases a chance of recidivism and destroys one's support network.  We live in one of the wealthiest, most modern nations in the world, yet we treat those accused or convicted of crimes in an inhumane fashion.  This forum welcomes commentary in the area of criminal justice reform.  If you have potential posting or comment, please email your thoughts to change@wallachlegal.com.
