    Dear Atlanta, It's time for essential bail reform. People are literally stuck in jail because they are poor. It's bad for them. It's bad for families. But it's also a waste of precious resources.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/11/us/atlanta-bail-courts-reform.html?rref=collection%2Fbyline%2Frichard-fausset&action=click&contentCollection=undefined&region=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=collection&_r=0 …

        There was a young man in what I like to call the "FulCo Hideaway" by the name of Vandez Mccloudy (Judge Campbell docket), who was sitting there on 400K bond. For the alleged armed robbery. Of a basketball. That was never entered into evidence.

        How was that case resolved? Or was it ever resolved?

        "Debtors' prison" is a term I thought I'd never need to define, outside of a Dickens novel!!!!! 😕 https://m.thegazette.co.uk/all-notices/content/100938 …

        They shouldn't be committing crimes to end up there in the first place, though. People are not sent to jail (and have to stay there) because they are poor. They committed a crime, and have to pay the consequences of doing so.

        There are enough people in ATLANTA that could afford to donate bond $$ for those that are deserving of the help. What is best way to start an "adoption of bail" fund? But will not cover ensuing lawyer fees....
