There’s something wrong with our criminal justice system when nearly one out of three African-American men can expect to spend some portion of their life in prison and four out of five juvenile offenders are re-arrested within a few years of their first arrest. Richard Aborn will be a progressive and effective District Attorney, bringing new ideas and a new vision to the office. We need to find better ways to prevent crime before it happens, by getting guns off our streets before they’re used, giving at-risk kids alternatives to crime, and treating drug addiction as a public-health rather than a criminal-justice problem.
