Frankly, the @BrooklynDA just told a lie.
So many public defenders saw him say this and wondered, "Well how in the hell is my client in jail for drugs right now?"https://twitter.com/chayesmatthew/status/986614190864523264 …

I’m very interested to get a name of someone who was jailed for marijuana possession in Brooklyn.

The district attorney is completely Not telling the truth. People still be locked up and prosecuted for drug charge in jails.

I disagree it’s false. Drug possession/use cases are being de-prioritized, and he is working closely with the Drug Policy Alliance to move away from a punitive model to services and diversion, including away from the justice system altogether.
