How to get away with murder
: Transcript
. Ms. Keating, we’ll now hear your rebuttal arguments
As an arbiter of the law, with whole knowledge of historical jurisprudence in this country, race must always be considered a variable
.You have precious time, Ms.Keating
.I suggest that you don’t waste it by making arguments you’ve already made
.These are not my words, Justice Strickland
.They’re yours
.You wrote them in your 1985 ruling in Bryant v
.Topeka, an equal protection case dealing with a state-housing lottery program
.Racism is built into the DNA of America
And as long as we turn a blind eye to the pain of those suffering under its oppression, we will never escape those origins
The only safeguard people of color have is the right to a defense, and we won’t even give them that
.Which means that the promise of civil rights has never been fulfilled
Due to the failure of our justice system, our public defense system in particular, Jim Crow is alive and kicking laws that made it illegal for blacks and whites to be buried in the same cemetery, that categorized people into quadroon and octaroons, that punished a black person for seeking medical attention in a white hospital
.Some may claim that slavery has ended
But tell that to the inmates who are kept in cages and told that they don’t have any rights at all
People like my client, Nathaniel Lahey, and millions of people like him who are relegated to a subclass of human existence in our prisons
There is no alternative to justice in this case
.There is no other option
To decide against my plaintiff is to choose lining the pockets of prison owners over providing basic defense for the people who live in them
And is that the America that this Court really wants to live in? Where money is more important than humanity? Where criminality is confused with mental health? The Sixth Amendment was ratified in 1791
.It’s been 226 years since then
.Let’s finally guarantee its rights to all of our citizens
