This is a critical read by Prof @ColinStarger @ubaltlaw & Prof Doug Colbert @UMDLaw, arguing that the failed reform of Baltimore's pretrial legal system represents a larger triumph of structural racism, and nothing short of radical transformation of the body politic will end it.
Volume 82, Issue 1 is here! Professor Douglas Colbert's and Professor @ColinStarger's Article utilizes an original empirical study to analyze Baltimore's pretrial legal system in light of Dr. Lawrence Brown's Black butterfly. marylandlawreview.org/volume…

Congratulations to @ubaltlaw web specialist JP Soto, second from left, who was honored today by the Baltimore Police Dept. for “selfless heroism” in saving a man from drowning in the Inner Harbor. Bravo, JP!
