In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, a variety of criminal justice related issues have emerged. For instance: domestic violence is up; hate crimes against Asian Americans are up; rates of alcohol use have soared; marijuana shops have been deemed an essential business; crime has gone down in some cities, but up in others; courts across the Southland are shut; police are not issuing citations/warnings instead of taking people to jail; inmates are being let out of jail and prison early; gangs in the favelas of Brazil have helped by forcing people to stay indoors and practice social distancing; and anything else you can think of, please run by me first
