why under don't understand logically but i will say this we always talk about a minimum wage and my father actually brought this up in our group that we need to have a maximum wage because when you have people making this much money that gives them more power and control over so many different aspects of this country that it's ungodly what do you need that much money for at the end of the day no i agree with you there and we know about amazon is that the majority of their workers are full time workers these are contractors so you know when coburn 1000 hit it meant that a lot of people were either laid off or they already didn't have health insurance and we also know that they weren't given the proper p.p.a. to protect them while they were working in these warehouses so there's a lot going on at the back story there as well i mean look like there's just brought a brand new $165000000.00 homes here that goes along with $80000000.00 worth of new york apartments meanwhile nearly $62000000.00 people lost work between march 21st and september 19th $98000.00 businesses small businesses closed that is not how a country or economy could possibly survive when you have that much money flowing
7:31 am
to the top and so little going to the rest of us. if there wasn't enough going on in the lead up to the 2020 alexion here in the u.s. . a stunning revelation is sending shock waves across the country lawyers say president trump's border policy has left over $500.00 migrant children without their parents that's right somewhere in the shuffle of cool detention policies and family separations hundreds of kids are now left without their parents at all and the u.s. government doesn't seem to know where those parents are and aren't providing much information on exactly how they banished according to court filings obtained by n.b.c. news lawyers appointed to represent minors say that $545.00 parents can't be found the attorneys believe that 2 thirds of the parents were deported to central america before they could be reunited with their young ones joining us now to shed light on this is immigration attorney alan or jr welcome alan. thank you for having me well
7:32 am
and i know that you have talked about this a lot in social media in other circles as well let's start with the basics how can the u.s. government lose 545 parents and what happens now to these orphan kids. so i think a little bit of this branding of the parent is losing the conversation because we should be talking about how many kids in the last 545 kids as well as the parents let's shift the conversation and say it's 545 kids that are here that are now orphan or that have been abandoned in the united states because of us and the way it happened is by design because we're able to keep up with anything that we want to go with luggage with over the military we can keep up with anything we were people going to the moon so really this is by design that they didn't care enough to sort of track the parents to these kids and so the problem of this is it started in 2017 so these kids have been separated for 2 years or more and basically or more and the concept is that many of these kids have more separated from their parents
7:33 am
and they have with their parents and that's the biggest problem that we're sort of facing here that was the us all that is clearly against international law and now we're trying to write that policy. you know allan troubles border policies we been scrutinizing him for a long time especially on this show and in other places do you think at all that this new revelation is going to affect him at the polls and you know will this play a role in the election and what can be done to rectify this damage you talked about kids been away from their parents for more than 2 years now longer than they were at their parents can this ever be rectified and fixed. right so the rectification of it probably i don't really know how you fix that issue when you take away the someone is a toddler and someone is a kid at that age frame they're forever damaged in the only way we can sort of right size that is the sort of give them some sort of green card in their parents just sort of say we need to move this forward in the best way we can or regards to the policy suburban women are really impacted by kids and this is really been a good talking point for people but i think at this point all the christians all
7:34 am
the pro-life people everyone who says they're out there about the kids and kids in school and in coping need to now rise up and ask their congressperson is running for office what about the 545 kids i think would have been really bad but 545 that's a really horrible and that's out of the 2000 that they had already separated in the very beginning and the real issue of this is why were they separated the 1st point today you see d.h. as coming back and saying are you saying well the parents don't want them back well back into the cart and those are very complex conversations that we can have with each individual case by case depending on where the fairness if you can impact on them because 283 of them they don't even know the parents are but you can't really have a conversation thing the parents don't want them back because they should have never been separated in the 1st place much less can you claim that as our 1st lady did that these kids are better off now than they were of their parents because they have and they have to pay that's really not a conversation i want to have with anyone it's irrational it's also one has been proven false because we know a lot of those kids were found sleeping on floors and didn't have anything to clean
7:35 am
their bodies much less their teeth but alan i have another question for you we know about the family separations in this bombshell story but amid these amid this information there's also the devastating news that trump is ratcheting up calls to continue those immigrant raids across cities in america just a few days out of election day what are your thoughts there and why do you think the president is targeting sanctuary cities right now some of which are also in battleground states. so it's a circus and it's really not about enforcement because you've been in charge for 30 years you have not supported as many people as the former president we clearly said you had a story immigration policy and he did it and today you went after 13000 individuals that came in and said they had a job when they didn't have a job and therefore they weren't taking away jobs for american workers but you use our resources during kogut to go up to 13 students who falsely claim that they were working right i think there should be adjusting our expectation for that but at this point in time do i think those 13 students are now so security harm are more important than cobra i really don't think that shows
7:36 am
a lack of direction and control and what we all know right now is it really isn't when people in the whole thing you're doing this big around the butt deportation when in fact you have a judge after a judge saying you see these private prison that we're paying for and i think right now with the deficit being as large as it is americans need to start asking why are we paying so much for prison. does a great question as to why we're paying so much for prisons and why is american tax dollars being used to pay for what our son she called them this before and you've agreed with are sentient concentration camps for these poor people who have come across our border than we have now thrown in jail separated them from their kids now essentially lost 500 some odd broken up families and then lost where to send these children i want to ask just one final question before we goes. what is what possibly is their excuse at this point when confronted with these numbers do they have any anyway excuse whatsoever to how you'll lose someone's family. know and they're running away from it there is no excuse because it's by design and i think
7:37 am
at the end when they sort of meet themselves in international court for truth and reconciliation of our own congress they're going to have to come up with an answer because now there are there's twitter there's a policy inside that were sort of shown from n.b.c. that they did it on purpose but behind the development even miller people need to be held accountable for that. underdog people would be raging in the streets if this is happening in another country remember when this happened on the continent of africa people were outraged when the girls went missing and the problem of all this is you haven't. you don't know any of their names you don't know in their location. this many people and they don't have any boys how many girls ages are because their narrative i couldn't agree with you more this is absolute people should be outraged by this we should be heartbroken by this and we should be demanding accountability for this because again these are children as you so eloquently pointed out thank you for your hard work and getting the truth about this out there and all the work that you're doing now and always a pleasure having you on sir. thank you guys for having me. all right as
7:38 am
we go to break remember that you can also start watching locks on demand for the brand new portable t.v.'s which is available on all platforms coming up more than 4000 people have died in u.s. jails before their day in court and former u.s. trial attorney arthur reserve joins us to discuss that shocking number of stay to leave the courtroom watching the whole. thank. you thank. you. thank. you. oh look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the 1st law your identification for should be very careful but official
7:39 am
intelligence at that point all if you see is a great trust ever over the shia. currently there is chummy with artificial intelligence will summon the demon. the robot must protect its own existence which except for the. americans love buying homes. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hoe and then you know rebel right that's the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. of the really interesting dialing back and think about
7:40 am
the longer deeper history housings men in the united states not just that question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is for. an entire village in alaska has had to move if another country trying to wipe out an american town. we do everything in our power to protect. wanted a scary thing climate change poses the same threat right now alaska does seem some of the fastest coastal erosion in the world we lost about 35 feet. 35 feet of ground in just about 3 months while we were measuring. it is fast and that means the river is $35.00 closer than how. long was 4 i don't think we're part of thirst for.
7:41 am
this little more than a week before the election many are asking the question do you believe the polls we have good reason to do so should voters trust the polls and if you don't trust the polks will you trust the outcome of the election. in the brain. my favorite or the. u.s. losing rolaids we have part of the brain right here in the middle that's on the right side very high with assimilated and even healthy people 100 proof over sold out of body experience. is your media
7:42 am
a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being led so. direct. what is true or false is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. aura maybe in the shallowness. you know what i mean you get there see i don't think about love last picked on many of us grown men not new dorp or. i kind of were on the bishop on the course of the now i think it's higher than our. members of the
7:43 am
african mafia has promised them safe and quick passage to europe but once they. leave they are in sleeves they count speech util. will not some of them leave your mom and i couldn't you know if this unit can get it out in. the soil the. leave it all on court of the. because the persona that a kid even the scabby the normal.
7:44 am
criminal justice reform calls have largely landed on the prison system post conviction we're talking mandatory minimum sentencing 3 strikes laws agree just sentencing mandates the place people of color imp. risen for much longer terms than their white counterparts but not getting as much attention or the calls for reforms in the pretrial stage this stage comes before an accused person ever face of a trial or jury or a judge thousands of american sit in jails across this country for months sometimes years without being found guilty of anything i know the story will too will because my old mother languished in jail never having a day in court her crime she couldn't afford bail and had a mental illness. and she wasn't alone while essentially starving time without a conviction folks often end up facing severe human rights violations up to and
7:45 am
including death in fact a recent special report released just last week revealed 4900 $98.00 people died in u.s. jails many under brutal circumstances in one case harvey hill a mentally ill man was charged with trespassing after he was found standing in the pouring rain and laughing at the sky the man who called 911 alerted the arriving officer that hill needed a mental evaluation but he never got one and said hill was charged with trespassing jailed and incurred a $500.00 fine but things only got worse from there the next day hilton flew into a rage at the madison county detention center in canton mississippi 3 guards tackled him pepper sprayed him kicked him in the head after he was handcuffed he was slammed against the concrete wall the officers then lured him away from camera shot and continued to beat the handcuffed man in a subsequent investigation the guards said hill was so combative and showed
7:46 am
superman force that they were wired to spawn a respond aggressively. hill was then sent in to follow to recombine it where a guard pinned him to the floor beat him then removed his handcuffs. the poor man died just 46 minutes later. agree just disgusting and maddening but hill's case it isn't unique he is one of 7571 inmate deaths reuters documented in u.s. jails between 182008 to 2019 joining us now is the riser the director thank you for having me appreciate the deaths in the jails continue to mount across the country and being mindful that these people have never been convicted of anything why do you think stories like harvey hill's aren't receiving more widespread attention the criminal justice reform standard bearers tend to focus on they tend not to focus on jails at all outside of baylor for they're not really looking at cases like this. i think very sadly the answer is kind of within itself the reason these individuals
7:47 am
are 'd in jail pretrial most the time is because they're too poor to get out and that right there exactly what you described but your mom that's heartbreaking i'm sorry to hear that is exactly why these individuals die in jail because they have the smallest voice and when you have a small voice you really fall to the very bottom the list and i think a really important that just again or stand here is that number 7571 from 2000 h. 1900 that's only looking at 500 jails that's only 16 percent of the jails across the united states we don't we there's 3100 jails so that number is probably much higher. i think what truly breaks my heart about this story is the fact that these are people who are still technically not guilty if you know we still go by that old adage of innocent till proven guilty i know that's kind of a rarity these days but you know that's what really makes this sad and were and reports are showing as you mentioned that the fatality data in jails has become
7:48 am
more and more secretive to on top of not getting all of it especially of the trumpet ministration traditionally aggregated statistics were published every 2 years we haven't seen that since 2016 a justice department spokesman said there are no plans they're superior to reports of inmate deaths how does this hamper advocacy for these people and what problems does this lack of reporting cause. data is everything it's impossible to create a new policy systems it's impossible to understand what is happening without truly understanding the actual numbers because without it you're just you're just talking about stories and you know harvey his story is tragic but it's just advantaged outside of this report and the most important thing to kind of understand about this is that b.d.s. has said that we're not going to go forward this is not one of those situations where you have the government saying we're giving it we're gathering it the bureau
7:49 am
of justice is just saying no we're not going to turn it over so how do you ever really advocate for a new set of polls he's done when you don't understand what is happening i mean we know more about deaths of civilians in iraq that we know about deaths of our own civilians within our jails and that is outrageous. and are there couldn't i couldn't put it better we know that these deaths many of them are preventable 1st off with better protocols against abuse health assessments corrective action from the work that you do have you written or supported any model legislation or policy framework so around this issue and what are your thoughts on things that we can change. well 1st yes i just wrote a paper. with tracing mirrors and you know law school that basically argues that nobody should be incarcerated in jail without severe due process just because they can't afford bail and even this idea that all we're going to keep people in jail because there are risks to the community most that kind of
7:50 am
bold to be part of my my my my my language because who defines what is what is a public safety risk you know listen i'm a center right guy i care about public safety in a really is a bedrock to me but this isn't actually make us safer let me talk about a few statistics we know that 2 or 3 days in jail for low risk individuals so these are individuals who do not pose a risk are 40 percent more likely to commit new crimes than the individuals were held for 24 hours or less and that numbers only magnify the longer you hold these individuals low risk individuals or help are $31.00 days or longer or 71 percent more likely to re-offend and now when you talk about high risk individuals dollars no correlation between time in jail in the likelihood new crimes what that tells us is that we are actually making ourselves less safe by holding individuals in jail longer than we need to and why is that well of course it is actually self-explanatory when you were in jail you lose your job i mean listen if you guys
7:51 am
didn't come to work for a date you probably wouldn't lose your job i would lose my job i mean hell i haven't been to work going to europe because it go good. and still you literally. we even if you work at wal-mart you'll get tilting privileges you were good wal-mart you're gone for a day or conversion you're caught for a day you're got your job is gone and you lose your home and you lose your family uni's all your stability and the last thing up or nothing that you made a very valid point about is jail is the absolute worst place for individuals who are having mental health issues i mean britain is better for god at least prison we have reentry programs you have actual medical care but individuals who. are going to mental health rights as a worst place you can put it is jail and most these individuals are held there for misdemeanors it is crazy what we're doing and we're making ourselves and say these are citizens of the united states of america who are not. yet of our constitution
7:52 am
and it's very sad. what's happening in the last thing i'll say is the remedy for most these individuals are still remedy while we want can't afford to get out of jail if she can afford to get a lawyer to add that you were to get out of jail that's crazy under one of the. minute sporting event which are what would protect you know if you work in the standards the standards of the 40 of them is fair what's fair mean for 80 minute crew unusual it says serious medical care but there's no standard of what serious medicare is until a 6 minute. process no one defines what it what a speedy process is all the cards are stacked against these individuals and if someone like me who's on the right who believes that limited government we should be the one standing up against this this is our job let's was one thing that's going to cut as my eye are going to touch is why you're with what you're saying as if it boggles my mind the we don't see this kind of reform taking place
7:53 am
especially from the conservative side of the political spectrum because they are for smaller government and this is the very definition of government overreach but i want to ask you why is our system now so built to favor the prosecution and the government as opposed to be innocent individual in the civilian. because we've baked it in we baked into the system we're doing it for years i mean we the politicians have been pounding their their fists on podiums and yelling about the danger of the boogeyman that's coming to get us and that gets them elected and because it's gotten elected they've kept doing it and i'll tell you you cannot point to one thing in the united states where fear has driven policy and we ended up in a better place. every single time we've ended up in a worse place and that is exactly what's going on with jail now there is some light on the horizon there are some reforms happening there are many jurisdictions around this country in red areas that have actually made a difference i mean new orleans actually has decrease its jail population chicago
7:54 am
has releases jail population so there are some good things happening but we're still talking about by 1000 people who have died in jail and the vast majority are people who have committed misdemeanors who have mental health issues with drug issues we should be protecting these people but by our constitution exactly says that we should be protecting these people and as you so eloquently pointed out earlier that's the 5000 that we know of at this point are the result the director criminal justice and civil liberties on our street thank you so much for coming on and educating our guests our audience today always a pleasure i really appreciate it thank you yes sir thank you. man a lot of that's just breaks my heart when i see that because it is it's innocent till proven guilty and our system tells us everything other than that by their actions not their money what you say though you're innocent if you have lots of money then then you're innocent i guess and all that works all right everybody that is our show for you today remember in this world we are definitely not told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love you i rolled into our enemies across keep
7:55 am
on watching all those hawks out there and have a great day and like everybody. you know what i mean to be out there so i don't think about a lot of that i don't mean a guess and i don't mean not new dorp or. i kind of but on that basic course if back and i think now i think it's higher than. i think i might feel as safe and. to you it up but once. they are. they. were not some of the maybe oh my how my not i couldn't you know if this you didn't get it out to him.
7:56 am
they sold the. hall of the. cost of a sauna but a kid even thought all. americans love. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. be really interesting to dial it back and think about
7:57 am
the longer deeper history housings men in the united states not just that question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is for. with little more than a week before the election many are asking the question do you believe the polls we have good reason to do so should voters trust the polls and if you don't trust the folks will you trust the outcome of the election. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. tyson nation for community. are you going the right way or are you being.
