Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Do you have a different source? https://calmatters.org/justice/2021/03/waiting-for-justice/
How does that show lack of due process? And what do you define as "all the time?"
While this is all awful and should all change, it is hardly being held "without due process"
Things can be bad without being the worst thing possible.
Do you not think that being held in jail for 651 days without even a preliminary hearing is lack of due process?
Seems like a violation of the 14th amendment to me.

I quoted the part where they're getting due process. What they're not getting is a speedy trial. The reasons for this are a system that's overwhelmed.
Specifically they're being held so long because of a failure in the act of complying with due process.
How is being held in jail without a hearing, for almost 2 years due process? Yes there is a huge issue with the amount of back log in the legal system no doubt. If this person is found to be innocent, or in the preliminary trial found that not enough evidence exists to charge this person, they have not been given due process, if they're lucky they will get a bit of money, while their entire life fell apart around them. They would have been detained in violation of the 14th. That is not due process.
You're waiting on a hearing, which is part of your due process.
Your issue here in conflating that concept with a speedy trial. The system is broken and overloaded in some places, and so compliance there is difficult.
I'm all for prison reform as a whole. I'm for ripping the whole incarceration system out by the roots. But words have actual meanings.

You're absolutely correct words to have meaning.
-An unbiased tribunal.
This is from your source regarding due process.
None of these have happened due to the backlog of cases. As you said, he has not had due process given, because others are delayed in getting their due process. I understand being arrested doesn't mean a trial immediately. But wait times like this are completely criminal.
This is just totally bad faith lol.
Dude its ok to be wrong.
It's not in bad faith, and of course is ok to be wrong.
