Billions are spent here in America on incarcerating the world’s largest prison population. We speak with Hawai’i Friends of Restorative Justice Director Lorenn Walker and TRNN Executive Producer Eddie Conway about what it would take, and what it would look like, to abolish prisons in the U.S.

So we can’t jail the people that attacked the capital
What’s the process
So no consequences for the crimes that criminals commit? I agree that people should not be imprisoned for doing or possessing drugs except if that drug possession is in a quantity that goes beyond personal consumption. But shouldn't a car thief or rapist or banker found to be committing fraud be imprisoned?
With Trumps reElection 2020 we may see changes with
Kavinaugh and Barrett
in the supreme court to uphold Godly laws and stop abortion on demand.
But will God fight for us if we fall back into complacency. ? God told Jonah to tell Neniveh He would destroy the city. They repented and did not get destroyed. But years later they fell back into corruption and God destroyed the city.
The bible says troubles are coming , Gods wrath will be poured out.
Repent and believe jesus now while he may be found.
IF WE ABOLISH PRISONS WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH ALL THE CORPORATE CRIMINALS AND THE WAR CRIMINALS?
While I agree with most of what was said both by Eddie and Loren, there is one very important matter that must never be overlooked. There should be consequences for every action; indeed it is one of the laws of science; hence there are some crimes that must never be condoned or treated with the kid gloves approach. I completely support reform for some individuals but the truth of the matter is, some folks are past redemption. If we allowed every individual to escape the consequences for his or her actions, many of these perpetrators would continually commit these crimes because they would interpret that as a green light to continue doing them.
One typical example of this is the police's killing of mainly black folks for very flimsy reasons which they seek to justify after the fact. If police were held accountable they would stop this nonsense; but they are given a pat on the back when they do these killings. If we only punish or selectively punish one segment of the community while giving a pass to the rest, there will never be harmony among the population; perhaps this is the intention of the powers that be in order to divert attention from their crooked behavior.
Those we want to defund the police and get rid of jails or the ones who will be screaming that are getting no help and criminals aren't being taken care of like they should once it is done idiots plain and simple idiots definitely Democratic idiots
How bout cleaning up crime and return to core family values and good parenting. But that’d be too easy. Let’s just let the criminals run Amick and have free reign. That’ll guarantee more people of color die. Good job.
Lorren didn't give the insight i was hoping for. Nonetheless very important discussion. Maybe revisit with other experts.

I give my condolences to you about your brother
Rapers really?
Faith based prison. Really? Gtfo
NEW facilities for the mentally ill are sorely needed at this time.
there is no such thing as health systems. health is not obtained in hospitals or institutions. health starts with what you eat and don't eat. exercise can not save you from a bad eating habit. prisons are for the rich to get richer.
Thank you guys
You guys had a better shot at this with trump than mr 1993 crime bill Biden and mrs Harris that worked so hard to toss people into jail for life for some weed! Good job people!
I appreciate you!!
