COMMENTARYNEWS

Poor must pay fees or be jailed for misdemeanorsBy Frederick Benjamin Sr.UrbanProWeekly Staff Writer

AUGUSTAWhat does Ferguson, Missouri and

Augusta, Georgia have in common?They both have aspects of their

criminal justice systems that assess fees for petty offenses to people who can least afford to pay them.

In both Ferguson and Augusta one can wind up in jail if one doesn’t have money to pay the fines.

The U.S. Supreme Court decades ago ruled that “debtors prisons” were unconstitutional, yet through technicalities, collusion or ignorance among local judges and state legis-

lators, low-income citizens can find themselves in jail for unpaid fees.

In Ferguson the feds said that the system was designed to generate rev-enue and in Augusta, a local attorney dubbed the practice “cash register probation.”

Here’s how it works in Ferguson and Augusta. If you are charged with a minor infraction — say a speeding ticket or public intoxication — you will be assessed a fine. For most folks that’s an inconvenience, but if you are unemployed, or just struggling finan-cially, it’s a big deal.

If you cannot pay the fine in full — right then and there — in Augusta, you are turned over to a private pro-

bation company. Yes, you are placed on probation!

And once in the clutches of the pri-vate “for-profit” probation company, your fees can double or triple or qua-druple beyond your ability to make the monthly payments. In essence, you are charged for the right of the private “for-profit” probation compa-ny to “supervise” your “probation.”

If you cannot pay, you are threat-ened with jail — and many do wind up there.

Georgia leads the nation in the use of private probation companies.

Why? Because the private probation “hustlers” offer their services for free.

It wasn’t always this way. Georgia

started using these probation com-panies in 1991. In Richmond County, Sentinel Offender Services is the big dog. Statewide, critics of these ser-vices suggest that about 80 percent of those on probation are in the clutches of these for-profit probation services. And these companies rake in millions ($80 million is the estimate) each year from those who can least afford to pay. On any given day the total number of people on probation with private companies could exceed 175,000, according to Human Rights Watch, an organization that has doc-umented abuses under the system.

Thanks to organizations like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Human Rights Watch, the Southern Center, independent journalists and private attorneys like Augusta’s Jack Long and John Bell, these private pro-bation companies and the municipal-ities that have grown to rely on them (Richmond County and Columbia County), moves are being made to level the playing field.

Augusta Chronicle writer Sandy Hodson has covered these challenges quite comprehensively.

Local attorney John Long recently reached out to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder about the activities of Sentinel Offender Services. According to Hodson, Long cited the case of Hills McGee, a disabled veteran living on $250 a month, who wound up in jail because he couldn’t pay Sentinel a $180 fee.

Long wrote to Holder that the McGee case is just one example of how Richmond County’s criminal justice system is being corrupted by looking upon courts as “profit centers.”

Sentinel operates in Richmond County under Georgia law by the pleasure of the Richmond County courts and with the blessings of the Richmond County Commission.

Each year, State Court Judge Richard Slaby must come before the commissioners to get the Sentinel contract approved. And each year he is successful.

Long asked Holder to investigate the use of private probation compa-nies in Richmond County and the state.

In 2014 the Georgia state legisla-ture passed legislation that actually

Probation from page 3 gave the private probation companies greater powers and decreased trans-parency.

That they could pull that off is a testament to the lobbying prowess of these private probation companies. These companies have a “license to steal” and the larger ones are awash with cash and they know how to use it to lobby the state legislature and local governments to keep them in the fold.

Organizations like the Community Corrections Association of Georgia (CCAG) boast as members the CSRA Probation Service Inc. and Sentinel Offender Services and they are active on behalf of their clients.

To his credit, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal vetoed the 2014 legisla-tion and formed a bipartisan council to propose changes in the criminal justice system. He then asked the council to follow up on a state audit’s finding that the ways courts oversaw misdemeanor probation led to abuse.

This year new legislation did pass both the state House and Senate. Deal is likely to sign that legislation. The new legislation includes language that reflects the council’s reform recom-mendations for better oversight and transparency and places a cap on the fees to private companies that oversee “pay only” probation. The new legis-lation stresses that the judges must determine an offenders ability to pay and waive or modify fees and penal-ties for the indigent.

Although this legislation, should it be signed into law, is a step in the right direction, it is little comfort to those who feel that judges should have been doing this all along.

It still permits the private proba-tion industry to flourish in Richmond County and elsewhere in the state.

DeKalb settles lawsuit over jailing of poor defendants

By Carrie TeegardinThe Atlanta Journal-Constitution

ATLANTADeKalb County has agreed to settle

a federal lawsuit accusing it of improp-erly jailing poor people who couldn’t afford misdemeanor probation plans at Recorder’s Court.

The settlement comes as DeKalb County is restructuring its courts as required under new legislation that eliminates its Recorder’s Court and transfers its traffic cases to DeKalb County State Court.

The American Civil Liberties Union filed the federal lawsuit in January on behalf of 19-year-old Kevin Thompson, who was placed on probation because he didn’t have enough money to imme-diately pay a fine for a driving offense. A 1983 U.S. Supreme Court case pro-hibits judges from revoking probation for a failure to pay if a defendant is indigent and the failure to pay is not willful.

Yet when Thompson failed to come up with $838 to pay off fines and fees during 30 days on probation, a Recorder’s Court judge sent him to jail.

Under the settlement announced Thursday, DeKalb County did not admit wrongdoing. But DeKalb and the other defendants, which include the court’s chief judge and the pro-bation company Judicial Correction Services, agreed to pay $70,000. The defendants also agreed to implement a system to protect poor defendants from improper jailings and make sure they are aware of their right to an attorney.

Being poor is not a crime, and these measures will help ensure that peo-ple’s freedom will not rest on their ability to pay traffic fines and fees they cannot afford,” said ACLU attorney Nusrat Choudhury.

Unlike most states, Georgia plac-es many people on probation not because they need supervision, but because they simply need time to pay off traffic fines. The overall cost of an offense often doubles once probation fees are added to the tab.

Reforms for Georgia’s entire mis-demeanor probation system are now being considered by the General Assembly. Pending legislation includes a clear requirement that the state’s judges examine a defendant’s finances

before revoking probation for a failure to pay.

Choudhury said part of the settle-ment of the DeKalb case involves the adoption of a “bench card” to instruct judges on how to determine a defen-dant’s ability to pay. The card will also offer alternatives to jail. She said this and other elements of the settlement could be adopted by other courts.

The court restructuring in DeKalb also could create a model for other courts in handling defendants too poor to pay traffic fines, even though its probation system is not what led the General Assembly to restructure the county’s courts.

Recent questions about whether DeKalb Recorder’s Court actually had jurisdiction over state traffic offenses prompted passage of a bill to create a new traffic division in DeKalb County State Court and close the Recorder’s Court. Gov. Nathan Deal signed the legislation earlier this month.

But the restructuring has prompted a different approach to processing traffic cases. DeKalb Recorder’s Court outsourced its probation work to a for-profit company and placed thou-sands of people on “pay only” proba-tion with the company every year.

As it begins to process cases, the new traffic division of DeKalb County State Court isn’t placing people on probation if they need time to pay a traffic fine. Instead, Chief Judge Wayne Purdom has prescribed a program that is deferring sentences for two- or six-week periods if people need time to pay. The system seems to be working, Purdom said.

“So far we have only had follow-up calendars on the two-week resets,” Purdom said. “Most of these folks are people who have said they can pay the fine by the next paycheck. They are doing so at a 90 percent rate.”

Purdom said he should have a better of idea by July of how well the new system will work in the long run, but he said he expects to cut in half the number of referrals to probation for payment only.

“The folks who do wind up on pro-bation — mostly to do community service in lieu of a fine when they are unable to pay the fine by the deferred sentencing date — will be monitored by the DeKalb County probation rath-er than a private probation company,” Purdom said.

TEXT OF REP. BROOKS’ LETTERAfter 35 enjoyable and successful years in

the Georgia House of Representatives, I have decided to shift my priorities and transition back to fulltime Civil Human Rights work. I have decided to make the Moore’s Ford Bridge Lynching’s in Monroe, GA, my number #1 priority.

After leading the 12th Annual March on The Bridge on Saturday, April 4th, commemorat-ing the 47th Anniversary of my Leader and Hero Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I made my final decision on Easter Sunday at the square in downtown Covington while remembering the 1970 movement, where I was almost killed by Sheriff Henry Odum Jr. Moore’s Ford is spe-cial because it’s been a part of my life since 1968.

As you know, it was on Dr. King’s agenda from 1946 to 1968. So many of my colleagues involved in this movement have just recently passed . . . plus many more others are declin-ing in health. Other Moore’s Ford suspects and witness are also passing away rapidly. That’s why I have to devote all my time and energy to this movement before my time is up.

State civil rights icon resigns from legislatureState Rep. Tyrone Brooks stepping down in wake of federal indictment for financial miscon-duct.

THE CITYNEWS

ATLANTAState Rep. Tyrone Brooks resigned

his seat in the House last Thursday (April 9, 2015), hours before pleading guilty to one count of federal tax fraud and no contest to five more charges of mail and wire fraud.

Thursday’s hearing marks the close of a criminal case that began with a 30-count indictment more than two years ago. Brooks was hired as a young man by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. over 40 years ago.

The veteran Atlanta Democrat and civil rights worker showed little emo-tion as he answered dozens of ques-tions from U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg and left without speaking to reporters.

Brooks faces up to three years in federal prison for the tax charge and 20 years for each of the mail and wire fraud charges, as well as up to $1.5 million in fines plus restitution.

He will not learn his sentence for several months. Totenberg ordered

a pre-sentencing report be pre-pared within 70 days. Afterward, acting U.S. Attorney John Horn declined to say whether his office will recommend Brooks serve time in prison.

The government accused Brooks of systematically defrauding cor-porate and personal donors, from whom he solicited contributions

for a pair of organizations he led. He asked for, and often received, large corporate checks from Atlanta business titans Coca-Cola, Georgia Pacific Corp., Georgia Power and Northside Hospital to fund his work through the Universal Humanities charity and the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials.

15QP’s Dollhouse from page 9

What is the appeal of performing on stage and sharing your music with others?

In the beginning, it was something other than appealing – the act of getting up on stage and exposing myself as a musician and vocalist. As time has passed, I have grown to love what I do at an immense level, sharing reflections from my soul with the world. Stage or no stage, sharing my music is what fuels my existence.

I create songs and can play them for myself — but, to share is something unifying and vulnerable. It keeps me humble, it keeps me grounded and it keeps me thankful.

When did you first become serious about your music?

I first became serious about music when I was a junior in college. I was recording my first EP (extended play) album “Harmony” in the midst

of finals week and I was releasing it to the world. I was gigging every weekend and putting a large amount of effort into my music as a career. It became more than just a pasttime or a hobby.

Many artists share their personal trials, challenges and triumphs through their particular medium of expression, such as creating music or writing. Has

creating music been a catharsis for your own personal life?

In every way, shape, and form — yes, it is a catharsis. Instead of holding every experience inside, I have the ability to manifest it into someone somewhat tangible. Life is a wave; there will be ups and downs for all of us. My healing is in creating music; I hope in others, their healing will be in listening to my music. We all need help along

Sometimes an old soul finds a place of expression in youth; a young mind and young voice that translates a generation of human existence into simple lyrics that touch, transform and restore. With raw, earthy vocals and clean instrumentations that reveal a spiritual depth far beyond her years, vocalist Celia Gary is that old soul, a true dichotomy in the making. Her music transcends

young angst and enters the realm of wisdom through pain and triumph, celebrated with licks on an acoustic guitar.

The 24-year-old USC-Aiken graduate, who is a well-known face at many Augusta music venues, spent some time with UPW to share her story and to let us know what’s on the horizon in her music career.

this beautiful journey called life.

Music is extremely powerful – it can uplift a person’s spirit; it can immediately take a person back to a past memory; it can soothe anxious thoughts; it can literally heal a broken heart – and it can make people jump up and dance. Why do you think that music is such a versatile force in this world?

I think part of the power is how music can strip away our ideologies and identities, while simultaneously unifying us through feeling and emotion. We all experience the same emotions throughout our lifetimes and that is something that each of us has in common. Music connects us to our inner self and helps to mend old wounds or reminds us of how we were feeling on that beautiful sunny day. It exposes our pains without blame or pointing fingers, it asks questions without expecting answers and it reminds us who we were and who we are becoming.

Who are some of the biggest

influences on your music?I listen to all sorts of artists and am

inspired by an array of musicians. It is hard to pinpoint just one. I have always been inspired by The Beatles. They have a wide range of genres, themes, and countless songs that I consider timeless. Their music grew with them over the years and that inspires me. Some female artists that have been an influence on me are Feist, Sharon Van Etten, and Catpower. These ladies are where I want to be musically – they create beautiful and soothing music and make a living on their craft. Other than that, I am sure any band or musician I am listening to at the time of creating a song influences me in some way.

Which song is your all-time favorite creation? Why?

Out of the songs I have created, I’d have to go with Enigmatic. It encompasses where I am in my life right now and how I see the world. It sparks wonder and mystery of our existence. I wrote it on the ukulele which is pretty awesome.

Do you play other instruments? I originally played the piano

actually. I don’t own a piano anymore but when I am around one, I can dabble. I play the guitar mostly but I also own a few interesting instruments that I enjoy playing around with, like the banjo, the ukulele, the xylophone, the tambourine, the melodica and the harmonica. I enjoy learning and playing with any musical instrument, even if I’m not all that great at it.

You recently completed a new CD, Enigmatic, with the launch date slated for April 18th. What can your fans expect with this new release?

I am ecstatic to finally be releasing my first full-length album to everyone! This is a combination of two years of living and writing. I decided to take on this project myself. I did all of the writing, recording, mixing, and album art. I got the album mastered by Shawn Guess, aka The Digital God, to help polish it all off. This is a raw, hand-crafted album full of different pieces of my existence and reminiscent

messages from my soul. I can’t wait to share it with you!

Do you have any upcoming performances that you’d like to share with our readers?

My upcoming gigs in town are:

Friday, April 17th at Helga’s starting at 10PM

Saturday, April 18th at Humanitree House at 8PM **CD RELEASE***

Thursday, April 23rd at Edgar’s Grille at 6PM

Friday, April 24th at Whole Foods at 7PM

Saturday, April 25th at Birddog Cafe at 7PM

I hope to see you at one of my shows before I head off on tour in late April!

Malaika Favorite and Anthony Kellman at the Morris Museum of Art

On Saturday, April 18 the Poetry Society of South Carolina Regional Seminar will feature Malaika Favorite and Anthony Kellman at the Morris Museum of Art.

A mixture of reading presentations and writing exercises, the seminar is team-led by Malaika Favorite and Anthony Kellman. Professor Kellman teaches English and creative writing at Georgia Regents University and is the longest-serving director of the nationally and internationally recog-nized Sandhills Writers Conference & Series.

Malaika Favorite is a Fulbright visu-al artist fellow and poet who has

given art shows regionally, nationally, and internationally and whose art works can be found in major nation-al collections. She works mainly in oil, acrylic, and water color, and has experimented with folded canvas and the written word.

Anthony Kellman is a poet, nov-elist, and musician. He’s the origi-nator of the Caribbean poetic form, Tuk Verse; has published five books of poetry including Limestone, the first epic poem from the island of Barbados; two novels; and four musi-cal CDs. He’s a recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship.

If you’ve heard about the recent jail-ing of 11 teachers involved in the Atlanta cheating scandal, if you’re

one of the people out there who is shaming these teachers as being ter-rible examples to our children for cheating, then you are on the outside and outskirts of an education discus-sion that is so much more important. How can I put this— you are holding a two-piece swimwear protest at a glob-al warming conference. Follow me.

I grieve for these fellow teachers, I truly do. My coworkers and I had many discussions about them when the scandal first broke. This is what outsiders — looking in — don’t realize: what these teachers did is simply have a broken reaction to a broken system, which is almost natural. Like a spouse who murders their abusive significant other in self-defense.

In this system, testing is all. Why? Because, thanks to No Child

Left Behind and Race to the Top, the focus of education has shifted from the enlightenment and enrichment of our students to making adequate yearly progress and other such “measurable objectives”.

It’s all about performance on stan-dardized testing — your students could be brilliant and talented in any number of ways, but if they don’t perform on standardized tests, you’re a “bad teach-er”, and your school loses funding.

And often, for struggling schools, the state/national standards (it changes so much I don’t bother to follow) are too high to meet adequately within the short span of time allotted. With

“It’s all about performance on standardized testing — your students could be brilliant and talented in any number of ways, but if they don’t perform on standardized tests, you’re a “bad teacher”, and your school loses funding.”

jobs on the line, with funding on the line, and with unreasonable standards to meet, many educators are left with two options— do the best they can and get anything from fired to trans-ferred to professionally scolded for things beyond their control, or do the “worst thing imaginable” and cheat the broken system.

The teachers in this scandal chose the latter.

Just so we’re on the same page here, neither of these options is meant to be seen as acceptable, by the way; all the options range between greater and lesser evils.

My coworkers and I had some very somber moments sitting around the teacher’s lounge table and trying to wrap our minds around this scandal. Honestly, though at a different school, we faced a lot of the same threats that these teachers in Atlanta faced; we didn’t cheat, but our saving grace was that the “new plan coming down the pipe” never lasted more than 2 years at

a time, so just as the guillo-tine would come down, the clock would reset. Thank God for state board incon-sistency, huh…

But, ya know, one day I found myself in the posi-tion of having to grade some of the tests created by the “people upstairs”. Tests full of spelling errors, questions that failed to list the correct answers, illegible/unread-able maps, all sorts of

nonsense. And it occurred to me… they’re just tests. They’re just pieces of paper with printer ink on them. And I had a thought.

“Burn the tests. Those teachers should’ve burned the tests. Just take the whole stack, put ’em in a basket, and set ’em on fire.”

Why not? If you’re gonna break the law, might as well break it in half, right? What’s more morally reprehen-sible: cheating to meet an unrealistic quota in front of and with your stu-dents, or exercising civil disobedience and refusing to take part in a broken system that unfairly targets and pun-ishes those who are doing their best with subpar conditions?

Sometimes the more radical course is the more respectable course. How do you fix a broken system if you always meet its demands, even symbolically? To fix a broken system, you first stop feeding into it. Stop participating in it. Stop cooperating with it. Whether by burning the tests, trashing the tests,

refusing to administer the tests— the point is, putting the tests back in the tests’ proper place— as an evaluation of student growth and understanding, and not as a tool to merit or demerit educators.

I’d rather go to jail for noncompli-ance than to go to jail for trying too hard to appease the monster.

If you get nothing else from this, understand: these teachers were screwed no matter what. If they had been honest, their students would have fallen short and they would’ve been punished. Because they cheated, they were jailed.

Either way, the 21st Century Classroom wins, because the point is to eventually remove the human element from the classroom in favor of a cheaper, digitally-based educa-tion. Private educational consultants love this. Standardized testing com-panies love this. State school boards love this. Any excuse they can find to say “Teachers are inadequate” works toward the agenda of shifting to a busi-ness model of education.

Instead, at some point, teachers need to say, “This system is inadequate; greed has no place in the classroom.” But, as we see here, the worst thing we can do as teachers is attempt to placate the system in a way that undermines the nobleness of our profession and our personal characters.

Cheating is not the way. But I do understand the pressure that makes us want to resort to such things.

On May 27, 2014, in Augusta, Georgia, Michael Paul Acord, 53, was victimized by the effects of alco-hol. Intoxicated, he crashed his Harley-Davidson motorcycle into a parked trucked. Michael was not alone. He had a passenger named, Regina Lynn Allen, 44, who later died from her injuries. On April 2, 2015, Mr. Acord committed suicide. Michael Paul Acord and Regina Lynn Allen never had a chance. Michael was like a little child playing with a loaded gun. Alcohol was the loaded gun.

Alcohol is a depressant, meaning it slows down vital functions; resulting in slurred speech, unsteady movement, disturbed perceptions, and the inability to react quickly. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines alcohol as a drink such as whis-

key, vodka, wine, or beer containing ethanol.Ethanol is not harmless. It is a colorless, volatile,

flammable liquid that is the intoxicating agent in fermented and distilled liquors. It is used as fuel in automobiles. Ethanol is commonly called alcohol or spirits. Its purpose is not to make one spiritual, but to intoxicate. Intoxication is a state in which a person’s normal capacity to act or reason is inhib-ited by the effects of alcohol.

The only way a person can control the effects of alcohol is not to drink alcohol. Once a person drinks alcohol, it is absorbed in the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body. At this point the alcohol controls the person. The alcohol is lord and master.

Unfortunately, people under the influence of alcohol will do things they normally would not do while sober. They frequently ignore safety, moral, legal, or social norms. Intoxicated, they will attempt to operate a motorcycle, car, or truck. Sometimes it ends well, but many times it ends tragic.

The deaths of Michael Paul Acord and Regina Lynn Allen must not be in vain. Their lives mat-tered. Your life matters. Be courageous and choose to be sober. Do not be persuaded to drink alcohol by deceptive, slick, heartless advertising slogans such as drink responsibly or know when to say when. Don’t drink alcohol, period!
