This article is utterly fascinating yet also sobering. There is not much to be done: two minor copy tweaks, some fresh eyes maybe, and I suggest adding an image of the DC Jail. Ping me when done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:56, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

@Sammi Brie: Thanks! Image added, sentences reworded. I also added a brief sentence about Castón being appointed to the D.C. Sentencing Commission, a development since I wrote this that seems worth noting. Weird sidenote: Pretty sure that, just barely in-frame in the image I added, is the plot at Congressional Cemetery where my grandfather is buried. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (they|xe) 17:12, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

• Commissioners serve two-year terms and draw no salary, but receive funding for expenses and staffing. Remove comma (WP:CINS)
• However, Castón was registered to vote in Ward 8, and was thus ruled ineligible Remove second comma (CINS)

Sourcing and spot checks

• 5: America magazine article. This only works in conjunction with [4] but notes that he was taking classes and talks about the PSP. Y
• 13: WUSA article on Castón being newly free but still commissioner. Y
• 19: Afro-American article on transfer out of D.C.: The transfer removed Bishop from the city, making him ineligible and unable to continue in his duties as a commissioner... Y
• 21: Washington Informer article: Hayes, a Georgetown University prison scholar... Y
• P3: Published video of statements (as proof of its own existence). Y
• P6: Interview with Bishop when he was at McCreary. Y

Images

The lone image is a CC-BY map overlaid on OSM data. The size of the facility could be represented with one of the three fairly recent jail aerials on Commons, like File:DCJail-North.jpg or File:DCJailSouth.jpg.
