Ajay Dev has been in prison for nearly 10 years for charges that many believe were unfounded. His appellate team has filed a writ of Habeas Corpus and he has been granted what figures to be an ongoing series of evidentiary hearing perhaps as soon as this summer.
Vanguard Court Watch Interns discuss the case of Ajay Dev, convicted of rape in 2009 and sentenced to 378 years in prison. The Vanguard Court Watch Interns have been reviewing his trial transcripts and discuss whether they believe him to be wrongly convicted. The is the second of three parts.

Or, in Newsome’s case, probably not until he’s a ‘lame duck’, about to leave office… that seems to have a high correlation to gubernatorial pardons issued… no risk, no sentience needed…
So much for integrity of electeds…
Nixon was lucky… he accidentally stepped on Gerald Ford’s foot, and said “pardon me”… Ford, having several concussions while playing college football, took him literally…
It’s not something people are likely to share publicly until the Governor has acted. Newsom’s already commuted some sentences so I don’t think he’s going to wait until he’s about to leave office.
The rise of Trumpism is a symptom of a system in disrepair, exploiting economic inequality and institutional decay to manipulate voters and gain power, and the only way to prevent this from happening again is to rebuild the economic and moral foundations of democracy.

The NIH has abruptly terminated millions of dollars in grants for research related to "gender identity" and "diversity, equity and inclusion", causing significant disruption to life-saving research on diseases such as Alzheimer's, HIV, and cancer, and putting lives at risk.
Yolo County Superior Court Judge Janene Beronio granted habeas corpus relief to Ajay Dev, overturning his 2009 conviction for sexually assaulting his adopted daughter, and a bail hearing is scheduled for Friday.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled the Trump Administration cannot deport Venezuelan detainees accused of being members of a gang using the wartime law, and referred the case back to a lower federal appeals court to determine if the migrants can be legally deported.

Sidebar to major topic…
Count the number of “uhms” and “like”‘s, and ‘hair brushes’… should be a contest to count them all… real ‘professional’…
Distracting as to real content… goes to effectiveness of communication of information…
Again I ask, have folk sought a pardon, under the circumstances/record?
It’s not necessarily something that people are going to talk about.
So, it’ll be a silent pardon?
