Description:Providing Liberal coverage of the politics of crime and the crime in politics since 2000. This blog was created in 2002 by criminal defense attorney Jeralyn Merritt. We have two additional featured writers, Big Tent Democrat, Armando Llorens, who says he's a centrist, and T.Christopher Kelley, who like me, is far more to the left than a centrist. All three of us are lawyers, and we write about politics and injustice as well as the political ramifications on crime issues. We also care about the war in Iraq, elections and social and other injustices.
