In New York state, hundreds of individuals are currently incarcerated for second degree murder, even if they were not at the scene of the crime or had no proven intention to commit the crime. It’s all because of the state’s felony murder law that can carry a maximum sentence of twenty-five to life.
Prisoners Brain Trust, a multicultural coalition looking to end carceral harm is working to repeal the felony murder law as well as uplift the writing and stories of incarcerated individuals through a monthly newsletter and social media campaign.
Radio Catskill’s Genevieve Hartnett spoke with Co-Founder Alisha Kohn and Board Member Nathaly about how this law disproportionately affects young Black and brown people and why implementing community driven preventative policies is how we should be looking at ending crime nationwide.
