A CRITICAL ANALYSIS

Lift every voice and sing Till earth and heaven ring, Ring with the harmonies of Liberty; Let our rejoicing rise High as the listening skies, Let it resound loud as the rolling sea. Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us, Facing the rising sun of our new day begun Let us march on till victory is won.

JOURNALISM ABOUT THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM

FREE AT LAST. OH GOD WE ARE FREE AT LAST

Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.

"I had a very depressing response because I realized that these were my own people, these were Negroes throwing eggs at me. I'm concerned about the fact that maybe all of us have contributed to this by not working harder to get rid of the conditions, the poverty, the social isolation, and all of the conditions that cause individuals to respond like this."

- Martin Luther King, Jr.,

THE GLOBAL POPULACE

Target Population Statistics: Global Incarceration and Community Supervision Globally, the scale of incarceration is substantial, with approximately 11.5 million individuals imprisoned, a majority of whom are men. A significant challenge exists in prison overcrowding, as around 120 countries report occupancy rates exceeding their prison system capacity. Pre-trial detention further exacerbates this issue, with roughly one-third of the global prison population being presumed innocent yet confined. In the United States, and specifically within Oregon, a considerable number of individuals are under community supervision and reintegrating into society. At the close of 2022, an estimated 3,668,800 adults were under community supervision, encompassing probation or parole. Oregon releases approximately 143,640 men and 45,181 women from its prisons and jails annually. Wrongful Convictions: Adding to these challenges is the significant issue of wrongful convictions. While precise global figures are difficult to obtain, studies in the United States indicate that a disturbing number of individuals are imprisoned for crimes they did not commit. This can be due to factors such as: Eyewitness misidentification False confessions Flawed forensic science Police or prosecutorial misconduct Racial bias These wrongful convictions represent a profound miscarriage of justice and further underscore the systemic problems within the legal system. These statistics collectively define a target population characterized by: A large global population is affected by incarceration. Significant challenges related to prison overcrowding and pre-trial detention. A substantial number of individuals are transitioning from incarceration to community supervision, as evidenced by national and state-level data. Individuals impacted by wrongful convictions highlight systemic flaws and injustices. This data underscores the need for effective strategies focused on rehabilitation, reintegration, addressing systemic issues within the justice system, and, importantly, working to rectify and prevent wrongful convictions. This is a critical aspect of ensuring justice and aligns with a mission focused on fairness and equity.
