Kalief Browder, held for three years on Rikers Island without charge, has taken his own life. Browder was first jailed at Rikers while he was a minor. All but forgotten by the Bronx District Attorney's office, he was beaten and at times held in solitary while awaiting a trial that never happened.
As mass incarceration grows, so too does the vast system of what are called "collateral consequences," which follow those convicted of felonies for the rest of their lives and brand them as permanent outcasts.
Why Is It So Easy for Prosecutors to Strike Black Jurors?
