In depth analysis from a commissioner on the DC Sentencing Commission.
In depth analysis from a commissioner on the DC Sentencing Commission.
Republicans are trying to get Democrats to own the crime increase in the next election. The recall election is a means to an end. President Biden saw this from a mile away and vetoed the RCCA. Meanwhile Allen supporters are playing checkers instead of chess. Again.

@DCGossipGworl That letter shows your man taking ownership of the IRAA since clearly he thought he was the only person who could explain what the law meant. Charles Allen, the champion of rapists and murderers.
This letter is Charles Allen putting his finger on the scales of justice. Has anyone ever asked him why he thought it was appropriate?

Clearly Democrats should get involved in a recall election in a deep blue city, thus taking ownership of an issue (ie crime) ahead of the 2024 Presidential race. Brilliant idea.

DC had 88 murders in 2012. It’s now being mentioned in the same breath as the most dangerous cities in America. Let that sink in for a minute.

This is why Charles Allen is in trouble. Just a fundamental misunderstanding of people and retail politics. They’re searching for the dummies guide on how to handle a recall election.

You see, the way to defeat a political group is to increase its exposure so everyone is aware of its existence.
This is wild.
Lots people on this website, ostensibly involved in politics as part of their day jobs, who are proudly displaying atrocious political instincts.
Last year, @charlesallen and his RCCA supporters forced @HouseDemocrats to walk the plank on a doomed vote. Now, they’re trying force @TheDemocrats to own the increase in crime in an effort to stave off a recall. Real political geniuses.

Anyone who thinks that turning crime into a partisan issue ahead of 2024 has atrocious political instincts. Dems should sacrifice Charles Allen on the alter of public opinion after what he did to President Biden with the RCCA.

The same people who claim that the response to crime must be evidence based, are now celebrating a slight decrease in crime over a four week period. That’s how bad crime is right now.

Weird that people who claim that it’s enforcement that really matters also support defunding and limiting the police. The pro-crime agenda at work.

I've mentioned this before, but if America sent literally nobody to prison except for murderers and rapists we would still have a higher incarceration rate than Germany And that's without punishing any thefts, frauds, or assaults
It’s like we’ve completely memory holed what happened in the 1960s and the Great Society program. Just throwing money at the problem doesn’t work. We can and should provide for people. But people should also be punished, sometimes severely, when they cause harm to others.

If he’s just one of 13, why is he alone conveying “the Council’s intent” regarding this terrible legislation? (And has he ever explained why he picked this case — involving the rape of a 9-year old — to make his point?)
Saturday night on Capitol Hill. Got the police alert about the carjacking. Got the MPD email re the illegal guns. Still hoping to get info on yesterday’s shootings…and enjoying the fiction re Allen’s tenure. Simple fact he chastised judge in 2019 for not releasing rapist.
Notable Democrat that thought Charles Allen crime bill was a bad idea.
I support D.C. Statehood and home-rule – but I don’t support some of the changes D.C. Council put forward over the Mayor’s objections – such as lowering penalties for carjackings. If the Senate votes to overturn what D.C. Council did – I’ll sign it.
@oucmecalling311 @RumbleOTPotomac 'Generation Wealth' datebook.sfchronicle.com/movies-tv/gene… is such a great documentary on how kids are assaulted with consumerism. I didn't have cable until after college so I'm with you. I'm lucky to have spent a lot of time outdoors growing up which was grounding.
@Hoya_Hoo @RumbleOTPotomac And there you have it, the exposure to displays of wealth and opulence is unprecedented. I remember having to know someone with cable to see Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and MTV Cribs just to get a peak at a world that I didn't know. Kids are exposed to it 24/7 now.
Is it ethical for someone who was appointed to the D.C. Sentencing Commission to politic for someone else to also be on the same commission?

271 homicides, 165 rapes, and 950 carjackings this year in DC. The DC Council selects 1 person to be on the DC Sentencing Commission & the Council nominated a man convicted of killing someone. Why didn’t the DC Council nominate a victim or a victim’s family member?
@ChmnMendelson @CMBrookePinto @BrianneKNadeau @CM_McDuffie @CMZParker5 @CMCharlesAllen @CMCHenderson @CMLewisGeorgeW4 You are not a credible messenger and certainly not an effective leader. Best thing you can do is to vote for CM Pinto’s legislation and then retire when your term ends.

Until you prosecute all crime and start holding criminals accountable, you’re wasting time and the wages you stole from everyone
I believe this murderer will be eligible for early release after 15 years thanks to @charlesallen’s Second Look Act. That would be 1/4 of the sentence. Shameful.
TBT. In 2019, @charlesallen wrote law enabling early release of violent criminals, including rapists. He wrote a letter to a judge criticizing him for not releasing convicted rapist. And now that violent crime is skyrocketing in DC, Allen claims that he is concerned about crime.
Hilarious that @charlesallen is trying to rewrite history on taxpayer funded mailers. We haven’t forgotten.
That dogs drowned is very sad but it would be nice to have the same all hands on deck response for the kids in this city who live with apocalyptic violence every day
The "It's happening everywhere" excuse was always intolerable BS. Now the DC murder crisis is revealed for what it is: unmitigated disaster unique to DC. Meanwhile... Policymaker 1: I asked the new chief for ideas. Policymaker 2: Call in the cavalry. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/…
Good morning DC Council. While you are on vacation criminals are shooting up my neighborhood and robbing neighbors. When you get back to the office in September, please write legislation holding people accountable for committing crime.
.@ChmnMendelson - earlier this yr you told Congress that DC doesn’t have a crime problem. Yesterday, criminals shot up street behind my house. Misrepresenting truth won’t stop the violence. Violence stops when DC Council writes laws holding people accountable for committing crime
Turnstile laws (and their ilk) are like the famous brown M&Ms: if somebody keeps jumping the turnstiles in the face of escalating consequences, then, congratulations, you've identified a maniac who shouldn't be allowed to operate in society.
@Maga2330Ultra @Recursion_droid @RyeisFox @wanyeburkett When I was a kid my friends got arrested for turnstile jumping in Brooklyn. Which is way worse than a $30 ticket. We have a much more punitive system in the US and it still doesn’t work. So maybe that’s the wrong approach.
Whenever I hear about some 3-strikes case where a guy stole a Snickers and got 15 years I always think, yeah, this dude had 2 strikes and *still couldn't exercise enough self control to not go out and steal a candy bar*. That's an *insane* person. And a dangerous one.
@JIckowski @brianthehuman Class is the best paradigm to understand Yimbyism, not left/right or capitalist/socialist etc. Yimbys are yuppies who see people they believe are beneath them enjoying a lifestyle they cannot presently afford.

The main impact of prison sentences on future crime rates is by “keeping them off the street” rather than deterring people ahead of time. Another term that people use to describe this crime-fighting aspect of prisons is “incapacitation” which is an aptly harsh term. (3/
Looking forward to testifying in front of the Committee on the Judicairy and Public Safety in support of the Safer Stronger Amendment Act. Thank you @CMBrookePinto for holding todays hearing. Let’s stop excusing bad behavior and hold violent criminals accountable.
