For a minute after Sessions announced his Drug War ramp-up, I was thinking that this would be a good time for us descendants of slaves to flee America.
Then I saw that this is targeted to federal prosecutors. Meanwhile, the sort of guidance he’s giving at the federal level is the statutory guidance given at the state level to put the majority of drug offenders in state prisons (both for and non-profit).
For the vast majority of drug offenders behind bars, I’m thinking that not much will change except for a more yawning dearth of federal help toward release or exhoneration.
