Florida is charging formerly incarcerated people $50 a day even if they’re no longer in prison. The “pay to stay” fee is based on the length of the original sentence, so even when they're released they must keep paying for a prison bed they’re not using. abcactionnews.com/news/local-new…

This was an unimaginablely labor intensive reporting project that's just starting to publish. Their database has uncovered hundreds of deaths not previously reported elsewhere and focuses on the role of death investigations by medical examiners and coroners
Police tactics like physical restraints and Tasers aren’t supposed to end in death, but they can. The U.S. government struggles to track these cases, so a reporting team led by AP investigated and documented more than 1,000 deaths from 2012 through 2021. apne.ws/ZAQbzeD
We are beyond thrilled to share with you the Grand Prize-winning essay of our 2023 Memoir Prize, @ChrisWBlackwell's piece about the routine horrors he witnessed during a spell in solitary confinement. Read it, share it, tell your friends about it: narratively.com/p/chaos-noise-…
So why HAS there been such a rise in deaths? Honestly, 3500 words later I haven't found anyone with a clear answer. Even @Carceral_ECO's Nick Shapiro - who probs knows more about LA jail deaths than just about anyone - said he has resigned himself to not entirely knowing.
In 2021, a man in at Men’s Central Jail tried to kill himself by removing his trach tube & stuffing Q-Tips in his airway. He was sent to a hospital then right back to the jail, where staff did not notice when he did it again -- and died. latimes.com/california/sto…
