House subcommittee on the Judiciary heard testimony from experts pressing the
White House and Justice Department to increase the rate and diversity of
federal clemency grants. Witnesses also testified about the need to reform the
Office of the Pardon Attorney. Congress urged Pardon Attorney Elizabeth
Oyer to release disaggregated demographic data on the more than 17,000 pending
clemency applications by A recent motion for sentence relief based upon the First Step Act (FSA) unlocked a seven-year sentence reduction, based upon our teams. research and drafting, such that the government was forced to resort to unsuccessfully argue 3553 factors after the beneficiary had completed dozens of classes, had an excellent institutional record, and enjoyed strong family support. The facts of every case are unique, but perhaps a similar result is waiting for you. Many of you
are still puzzled as to why those FSA programming credits, which should changed

this pattern of non-compliance with the law and basic human rights spills over
to substandard medical care, as well as abuse in many different forms. Research
by the Sentencing Project on female
incarceration shows that the number of incarcerated women was nearly five times
higher in 2020 than in 1980. Between 1980 and 2020, the number of incarcerated
women increased by more than 475%, rising from a total of 26,326 in 1980 to
152,854 in 2020, nationwide. Sadly, the federal prison system has mishandled
this increase, as claims of medical neglect (see: Carswell, Aliceville, Waseca,
etc.) and outright abuse (see: In a
positive development, the new federal prison director will come from outside
the federal system, and will not be a former CO, like the current director. Gary
Mohr, who has also worked in the private prison industry, is at the top of the
list of candidates to replace Michael Carvajal, who submitted his
resignation in January but said he would stay on until a successor was
named, the people said. A final decision has not been made and it’s unclear
when an official announcement would be put forward. Covid counts
continue to increase, as has prisons' lack of transparency. At FCI
" Stephanie
Seneff, Ph.D., a senior research scientist at MIT who has been at MIT for over
five decades, discusses her latest paper, “Innate Immune Suppression by
SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccination,." co-written with Dr. Peter McCullough, along
with two other authors, Dr. Greg Nigh and Dr. Anthony Kyriakopoulos. Those researchers
note that there has been a serious increase in long-term side effects from the
COVID vaccines, including the well known problem with blood clotting, and the fear is that in the rush to inoculate large numbers of people without
long-term studies on possible side-effects, authorities might have unwittingly
caused more long-term problems. Researchers also state, even the natural
immunity from the milder OMICRON virus, " may be canceled out in those who
have received multiple COVID jabs... Each dose erodes your immune response,
such that it becomes increasingly compromised with each jab." In fact, regulators
in the European Union are now warning that repeat COVID shots can weaken
overall immunity. Business Standard The US
Supreme Court moves toward its summer
