The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday threw out the stalking conviction of a Colorado man who sent hundreds of unwanted Facebook messages to a female musician, ruling that state prosecutors had not shown that he was aware of the "threatening nature" of his statements.
That’s not THE thing. That’s A thing that is related, sad, and irrelevant to how the Supreme Court operates.
Fwiw, Colorado is making great sides in redirecting mentally ill from law enforcement toward social services. Tons of room for improvement, but they’re wholly separate things, systemically.
