This is an issue of particular frustration for me. We should not typically incarcerate people who have only been accused but not convicted of a crime. This is a good article.

On America’s 250th anniversary, we must confront the issues of bail, democracy and the unfinished promise of democracy.

We all have stuff.
Every one of us has value.
Both of these things are true.

Judgment of Acquittal on 3 of 4 counts, including the Measure 11 charge. Today's trial is not over, but some of the counts are now gone. :)

It's official; I am back to work after 2 months of medical leave and I'm feeling great!

Looking forward to getting back in the saddle.

Update: I've been home from the hospital since March 20th. Each week gets better and the last few days I've felt pretty darn good. I'm hoping that continues!

I have lost part of my visual field - the lower left quadrant in both eyes - because the bleeding caused brain damage in my occipital lobe (where vision is controlled). The surgeon thinks it is permanent, but we are pursuing every feasible option to try to restore it. If we cannot, I have already mostly adapted to it and don't bump into things all day anymore!

I am remarkably blessed in how I've come through this hemorrhagic stroke. This kind of stroke kills 73% of people who have one. 51% in the first 48 hours. 😯 Many, if not most, survivors have lasting damage that can require a lifetime of assistance. I have no physical deficits, I have no memory deficits, I have no neurological deficits; no lasting deficits except 25% of my visual field.

When I think of how many ways this could've gone so very much worse, I am even more full of gratitude than usual. Grateful to God that I am alive and whole after this chaotic and traumatic event.

I'm planning to return to work in May. Maybe sooner if my healing continues to be excellent. I'm sorry it took so long to update you.
