Once a court decides that you’re not guilty, the answer should be “you’re free to go” and for those who have been incarcerated for a significant amount of time, “here’s how we’re going to support your re-entry into society.” Keeping the imprisoned is completely antithetical to any reasonable sense of justice.

The cruelty is the point
It’s fucking weird
Innocent people should be kept in jail of couse weirdo.
So republicans want innocent people locked up and guilty people in the White House. How is this a serious political party?
Of course it’s Missouri
Honestly surprised Mississippi didn’t swoop in with a plan to start The Purge
I was going to guess Louisiana.
I’d take offense at that, but I’ve seen our candidates for Governor.
It was not the first time that Mr. Bailey had sought to upend an exoneration, and his intervention in the Dunn case came at a critical point in his tenure, with the Missouri primary election scheduled for Tuesday. Mr. Bailey, who took office 17 months ago to fill out his predecessor’s term, is trying to fend off a formidable challenger as he seeks a full four-year term as the state’s top law enforcement officer.
Weeks before trying to block Mr. Dunn’s release, Mr. Bailey moved to keep Sandra Hemme locked up after a judge ruled that she was innocent. Ms. Hemme, who had been in prison for 43 years, spent another month behind bars before the state’s highest court stepped in and ordered her release.
And in June, Mr. Bailey tried unsuccessfully to quash a motion by the St. Louis County prosecutor to exonerate Marcellus Williams, who was convicted of the 1998 murder of a local journalist and faces execution in September.
It’s political imprisonment, and it’s fucking disgusting.
He needs to be imprisoned. Seems fair enough.
He should be disbarred at the least.
Disbarred, dismembered, any of the disses are probably being just fine
Eh, he’s already disimpassioned. We need to pick more radical disses.
He’ll most likely lose his job tomorrow.
Republicans, ladies and gentlemen. Unencumbered by morals, empathy, or virtues of any sort.
This guy should be thrown in jail for one (1) year for every one (1) hour these innocent people are held.
