    By now, many of you have seen that is asking a federal court to order me to delete this thread on behalf of prison profiteer CoreCivic. Apparently, they believe that truthful, verbatim testimony about chronic understaffing that they’ve been lying about is prejudicial.

    One of the nation's largest private prison companies, with an unfortunately long history of trying to stifle free speech (including last week in front of the 9th circuit), is trying to gag lawyer from tweeting about a case.

    Sorry, but public engagement is part of the overall strategy when litigating civil rights. The targets of CR lawsuits are often public officials or their contractors. Public pressure can change their behavior which is an underlying rationale for CR lawsuits in the first place.

    You represent Corecivic, the human scum who force immigrant prisoners to work an entire week just to afford a phone call with a pro bono lawyer. No doubt you would have represented slavers in the antebellum south.

    Two lessons from this: 1. If you, a misbehaving government contractor, abuse the legal process in an attempt to suppress truthful information about your non-compliance, you will end up on the front page above the fold. 2. Don’t hire . They’re bad for your business.

    Why, specifically, would they stop? It is impossible to get fired even for actual malpractice, and the Metro Council won’t exercise oversight of a department that has been reliably stepping on rakes for about ten years. It’s also your money, not theirs, so they don’t care.

    We won! I hope this is a lesson for superintendents & school boards everywhere: Get independent counsel, demand updates from your attorneys (we offered to settle for free, but the board never knew), and never, ever try to muzzle elected officials.

    It’s actually even worse. This judgment was joint and several, meaning that taxpayers were not necessarily on the hook for it. But Metro’s counsel gratuitously offered up taxpayer money to pay the entire thing in order to ensure that the co-defendant didn’t drop the appeal.

    A side note: Metro and the School Board should sue the Department of Law for malpractice and report its counsel for a constant stream of ethical violations. The Department of Law did not convey a single settlement offer to its clients, gambled with its clients’ money, and lost.
