>> To fix the system we need the folks inside it to understand the system.

Nope. The American justice system does not control itself. It is bound by laws and codes of practice dictated to it by outsiders, those good-idea people who's entire understanding of law comes from a highschool history or civics class they barely remember. It is as bad as it is because the general public honestly want it that way. Rough and violent justice is baked into American culture as much as guns and alcohol.

>>Part of that is education.

I agree, but it isn't the people in the system that need an education. It is the voting public outside who need the better understanding.
