On July 3rd, Governor Gina Raimondo issued a media advisory announcing a press conference to address plans to "Examine, Improve,... analyze and strengthen" our state's criminal justice system. Also speaking at the conference will be House Speaker Nick "Pauly Walnuts" Mattiello, State Attorney General Peter Kil-more-tin, and retired superior court judge Judith Colenback Savage. We at The Coalition would like a few questions asked and answered at the conference:
Will the justice system be reimagined as one where the 38 Studios fiasco will be investigated?
Will any of the improvements be the reinstatement of the law that would shield people who call 911 in the case of a drug overdose from criminal prosecution?
Will this presumably more robust justice system hold our elected officials to a higher standard and stiffer penalties for corruption?
Will this new justice system be justice for all, or continue to unfairly harrass and prosecute Rhode Island's minorities?
We would also ask that the Governor brush up on the Bill of Rights before initiating any changes to our criminal justice system.
