In a 65-page policy memo, Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins on Monday laid out her vision of "progressive prosecution," centered on dismissing low-level, nonviolent offenses, or resolving them without jail time.
The memo says that many of these crimes are "driven by economic, mental health, and social needs." Rollins hopes the reforms will help her reach her goal of minimizing the impact of the criminal justice system, especially for racial minorities and the poor, who are disproportionately affected by incarceration.
The mandatory sentencing Guidelines are a bunch of bull that is primarily based on racist laws.
