Merry Christmas

Something to make the baby Jesus smile.

At a previous place of employment someone who had worked there had been recently released after having been incarcerated for a long time due to a wrongful conviction. I never had a chance to speak to him, but just seeing him around filled me with profound shame. Justice will never be perfect, but too often people are locked up not for "honest mistakes" but for police or DA malfeasance.
