An 'enabled' New Disabled South ... on the rise

Governor Brian Kemp spent more time dousing the hardly-flickering embers of Sen. Colton Moore's efforts to have Fulton DA Fani WIllis removed and/or "defunded" than he did talking hurricane aftermath at a press conference pretty much called for news about the state's post-Idalia efforts. Hear what he had to say (and what I had to say about what he had to say). I'd called on Rep. Nikema WIlliams, and Senators Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff to speak up in the face of Atlanta using "signature matching" once "Stop Cop City" referendum petitions are turned in. Well, credit where it's due - the lady stepped up. C'mon guys. Okay, but did her statement have a lot of meat on the bone or nah? On the heels of the fourth casualty inside the Fulton County Jail IN A MONTH, and the eighth this calendar year, my guest today is Dom Kelly,. Dom's co-founder, president & CEO of New Disabled South, a non-profit advocacy organization serving disabled people throughout the southeast. With the recent death of 34-year-old Samuel Lawrence, a diagnosed mentally ill man in Fulton County custody, I wanted to have Dom on to shed some light on just how prevalent mental illness and other disabilities are amongst incarcerated Americans. I was stunned. Great conversation; I hope you come away learning as much as I did.
