This article is utterly fascinating yet also sobering. There is not much to be done: two minor copy tweaks, some fresh eyes maybe, and I suggest adding an image of the DC Jail. Ping me when done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:56, 17 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Sammi Brie: Thanks! Image added, sentences reworded. I also added a brief sentence about Castón being appointed to the D.C. Sentencing Commission, a development since I wrote this that seems worth noting. Weird sidenote: Pretty sure that, just barely in-frame in the image I added, is the plot at Congressional Cemetery where my grandfather is buried. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe) 17:12, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Copy changes

 * Commissioners serve two-year terms and draw no salary, but receive funding for expenses and staffing. Remove comma (WP:CINS)
 * However, Castón was registered to vote in Ward 8, and was thus ruled ineligible Remove second comma (CINS)

Sourcing and spot checks

 * 5: America magazine article. This only works in conjunction with [4] but notes that he was taking classes and talks about the PSP. ✅
 * 13: WUSA article on Castón being newly free but still commissioner. ✅
 * 19: Afro-American article on transfer out of D.C.: The transfer removed Bishop from the city, making him ineligible and unable to continue in his duties as a commissioner... ✅
 * 21: Washington Informer article: Hayes, a Georgetown University prison scholar... ✅
 * P3: Published video of statements (as proof of its own existence). ✅
 * P6: Interview with Bishop when he was at McCreary. ✅
