But the republicans didnt want democrats to enforce subpoenas. So they pushed the timelime to prevent more witnesses and evidence.

I also looked it up. Here’s a different take on the story...

Because it was funny, ya glue-sniffer. That's why!

 

Did you miss the point that they were 20 yrs ago? I’ve tried in vain to find out what the current misdemeanor was but jail codes could have changed in 20 years as he didn’t seem aware he was breaking any rules with the phone. Could have been a traffic violation for all They’re reporting. I won’t step down until I read that the officers in charge of searching inmates were relieved of their jobs for their part in this fiasco. Otherwise I will surmise that Mississippi is a hole I would never want to fall into nor do I intend to. Personally, after reading about Mississippi’s incarceration rates, I think they set him up.

 

And if a person likes Trump in some way, finds him amusing, normal or acceptable then they should look inside.

From the article from The Daily Beast:

Additionally, while 38 percent of Mississippi’s population is black—the largest share of any state—its prosecutors and judges are white and male, as in the rest of the country.

Today, the state that lynched the most African-Americans now locks up its black citizens. According to a 2018 ACLU report, 1 in 30 black men in Mississippi is in jail, while a 2019 report from FWD.us finds that “1 in 7 black Mississippians has a felony conviction.”

“This is a guy who has no history of violence,” said Robert McDuff, director of the Mississippi Center for Justice’s Impact Litigation Project. “His only prior criminal convictions were burglary convictions that were nearly 20 years old or older. I mean this guy's obviously not a career criminal. He was in jail on a misdemeanor charge when this cellphone was found…. So, yeah, clearly he's not a violent person—he’s not a danger if he's on the streets. It's just ridiculous to be sentencing him to 12 years in prison,”.

Those are some statistics. One in 30 black men in Jail with one in 7 having a felony conviction. Mississippi seems determined to lock as many black men away as possible even if their prisons are overcrowded (and the offense Innocuous).

There are some discrepancies as to exactly what happened. One report said he denied the phone was his. Others say he asked the guard to recharge it when the battery was low, like not hiding it at all. It doesn’t matter, it should have been taken from him upon his initial incarceration so there is blame all around.

As far as I’m concerned Mississippi seems like a very dark hole to me. As much as I travel I can see no reason to go there, and reading articles about things like this only makes the state more unappealing. Apologies to anyone here from Mississippi.

 

Yeah, we don’t know any of those details about how he was doing in the last 20 yrs. but sticking to what we do know, it seems since the error initially occurred on the side of law enforcement so there should have been a fine or warning at most. It wasn’t like the guy was already in prison and someone snuck him in a phone.

Quite frankly, if I was ever arrested, and I can’t imagine why I would be, lol, and they put me in a holding cell, I would be subject to whatever procedures I had to go through. At the end, if I still had my cell phone, I would assume it was all right for me to have it otherwise they would have taken it away. Why would that be my fault?

If they’re imprisoning black men for crimes that are as innocuous as this, that state has a big problem.
