Justice for Willie Simmons

> HB 40 would create a Criminal Justice Policy Development Council that would establish and implement a validated risk assessment for people who are incarcerated. This assessment would be used for parole guidelines and to create a classification system for people in prison that gauges their risk for criminal behavior.

This just shows you how wildly broken the system is. Why isn't this basic piece of the puzzle already in place? Why does a Council need to be created to implement this?

Alabama Reflector · Social justice groups set their agenda for 2025 Alabama legislative session • Alabama ReflectorAdvocates will prioritize criminal justice reform and voting rights even as Republican legislators have balked at them in the past.

> House Bill 44 would set new rules for the Alabama Department of Corrections when notifying emergency contacts of people that are incarcerated. In the event of the death of a person that is incarcerated, the Department would be required to notify their emergency contact within 24 hours.

Another one. Folks die and no one gets notified. The family has to learn about it second hand.

Oh, this one was from last year. The page I'm one doesn't tell me if it was passed into law.
