Mental Health and the Law - Untreated Mental Illness and the Criminal Justice System

To be clear: untreated severe mental illness places a great burden on our legal system. The Treatment Advocacy Center, a national nonprofit organization founded in 1998, dedicated to eliminating barriers to the timely and effective treatment of severe mental illness captures the issue succinctly: “Fifty years of failed mental health policy have placed law enforcement on the front lines of mental illness crisis response and turned jails and prisons into the new asylums.”

Coast-to-Coast: LA-to-Chicago

Chicago has still been nothing short of amazing. On Tuesday, I reported on the R. Kelly bond hearing. My knowledge of the law is limited, so I had to pay close attention so I could process the information accurately. The Crusader provided me with a document that was filled with law jargon and definitions. That resource was so helpful. Soon after, I had to leave for Los Angeles for a job interview.

Mental Health and Stigmas - Breaking Generational Curses with a Mental Health Day

I wasn't sure what to expect after pulling up to the large, unassuming building that held everything from a bank to the office that I was there to visit. Once inside I found the room was cozy and inviting, as I sat on a comfortable couch across from a woman that mostly let me vent for an hour - allowing me to vocalize my thoughts and more as I worked through them. A little over an hour later I left the session oddly satisfied, now wondering why I hadn’t gone through with it sooner.

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee Calls for the Firing of the NYPD Officer Responsible for Taking the Life of Eric Garner

Jackson Lee—“The time has come for the individual responsible for Eric’s death to face accountability, and be fired from the New York Police Department. This is the right course of action and should be done for many reasons. First, if our efforts at ensuring greater community police relationships are to have any meaning, then all stakeholders must feel that there is accountability when police officers err. This is one-such occasion where ideals about restorative justice dictate that all stakeholders stand collectively for the officer’s firing. This is the only conclusion given what the video of Eric’s last moments of life shows: the officer who killed Eric was not in fear for his life. Eric was not combative—in fact, the video shows him flailing, begging for his life, telling his apprehender that he could not breathe. My conversations with his mother—whom I know personally—further underscore that this father and grandfather was not a menace to society; rather, he was like the countless other African American men whose life was wrongly taken by law enforcement. It is time for accountability and responsibility and terminating this officer’s employment is the obligation of people who support enhanced police relations. It is time for all parties dealing with law enforcement across the nation to insist on police accountability and integrity. In addition to community-oriented policing as a method of training police, police departments across the nation should work to improve police/community relations as part of a community-oriented policing strategy. And, it is time for the man who took Eric Garner’s life to be fired from his position as an officer on the NYPD and it is time for the Garner family to have peace and justice.”

Mr. Consistency

Undrafted defensive back Derrick Baity looks to keep doing what got him here.

Webster defines the word consistency as, steadfast adherence to the same principles, course, form, etc. It means that an action or behavior is repeated over and over again usually ending in the same result. Texans undrafted rookie cornerback Derrick Baity Jr. should have that word tattooed on his body somewhere as he is the walking example of the word. And if you know Derrick, then you know he loves tattoos.
