DPI Endorses Landmark Bipartisan Legislation Abolishing Acquitted Conduct Sentencing

September 26, 2019–Statement of Due Process Institute President + Founder Shana-Tara O’Toole:

“Due Process Institute is proud to endorse the bipartisan Prohibiting Punishment of Acquitted Conduct Act of 2019 (S. 2566). The Act will abolish acquitted conduct sentencing in federal criminal cases and thus restore to the people, sitting together as a jury, the exclusive power to decide guilt or innocence.

In conjunction with the bill’s introduction, Due Process Institute has initiated a #JuriesDecide education, advocacy, and litigation campaign.
