Prisons / Justice System due to COVID-19
Is there anyone here that can speak about the prison system / legal system (aka courts)?

I'm assuming there will a backlog of cases when courts open back up. Any idea when courts will open? (will this be in unison with the economy, or after?)

Prisons are like petri dishes right now--will non-violent / first time offenders be given alternate punishments? (ankle bracelets, community service, probation, etc?)

Any insight would be appreciated.

Been corresponding with a friend who's in medium security in Oregon. He said basically they're locked in cells all day, only out less than an hour and in small groups... he said they can only be in groups of up to 4. But here's the kicker "we can't be in groups but then they send 300 of us into the dining area, crammed in, like normal."

Government logic.

Wow. Idiotic for sure. Texas prison system has halted taking new inmates.

I really sympathize for the people locked up. Most of them anyway. Drug offenders, stuff like that.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few months.

Yeah it is beyond fucked. He's in there because he was 20 dating a 17yr old. Apparently that's worth 15 years.
