Interview: Why the US Should Decriminalize Drug Use
Neal Scott may die in prison. A 49-year-old Black man from New Orleans, Neal had cycled in and out of prison for drug possession over a number of years. He said he was never offered treatment for his drug dependence; instead, the criminal justice system gave him time behind bars and felony convictions—most recently, five years for possessing a small amount of cocaine and a crack pipe. When Neal was arrested in May 2015, he was homeless and could not walk without pain, struggling with a rare autoimmune disease that required routine hospitalizations. Because he could not afford his $7,500 bond, Neal remained in jail for months, where he did not receive proper medication and his health declined drastically—one day he even passed out in the courtroom. Neal eventually pled guilty because he would face a minimum of 20 years in prison if he took his drug possession case to trial and lost. He told us that he cried the day he pled, because he knew he might not survive his sentence.[1

Hey Julie we are going to have a picnic and i was wondering if you would like to go. We should bring fruits and sandwiches for a snack. Bring a cover for us to sit on, and we need to make sure that we wear sunscreen. We can drink apple juice so if we get thirsty we can already have a drink. I hope you would like to go and reply back to this email. Have a nice day.!
