A whole wall of posts about the law, the prosecutors, the bail -- not one about this seemingly ordinary teenage kid stripped naked, held in solitary, black-eyed and beaten to concussions in pre-trial confinement. The law is what the police, the prosecutors and the general public can get away with, and this prosecution is what we get when there is no skepticism or accountability at all for those who carry out "the law." But why is it that we never seem to care much about what happens to people in jails? Is it just a given now, something so commonplace that we just can't get worked up about it anymore? If we can't have accountability for police and DA's can we at least have some accountability for the variously careless, incompetent and/or sadistic Mayberry's who run our prisons?
