    I saw Emily Baxter 5 years ago at a business event. She is right on! So very proud of you Emily! We need to change the criminal injustice system. Things need to change! Please share her talk...

    Mental health is a serious issue. I’ve had many opportunities and low points where I could’ve been a murderer. I just wish people would save me from myself before they have to save others from me.

    I think this project's importance has increased following the 'lock 'em up" stand our recently elected leaders appear to have taken, from AG on down the chain. Yes, we have an "empathy chasm." Good presentation, Emily. Thank you.

    I have a DUI. Blew a 0.09 but a 0.08 is sobriety. I am destroyed and so are my children forever. You were in Toronto March 1 and I spent $200 to get to u of t to see your lecture. The cabbie could not find the street and I missed your lecture. I am enamoured by your work and wanted to get your book. So I won’t be eating this week and this is because I am a heinous criminal that has no transportation. I hope you come back to Canada soon.

      That’s so sad 😢 especially considering the amount of people who get away with driving under the influence every single day. We have a criminal injustice system for sure.

      10,000 people are killed every year due to drunk driving, and that is no laughing matter. However, you are alive today and deserve a second chance. I hope you will not give up on your children and they won't you. Best wishes.

      What is “justice”? In a truly just system we would all be locked up criminals and thats why it doesn’t actually exist.

    When a person who physically abused me who kept on trying to aggravate me called the police on me. I talked about it with a counselor. I am not the type who presses charges. This video makes me feel guilty. It is like, I am white so it makes me guilty. I called a lawyer. I told him that the accuser called me mentally ill. He treated me with contempt. Lady, I guess that I have a problem with financial issues. I would hate getting a lawyer over a person who did defamation on me. I was doubting that it was defamation because I was used to being stigmatized most of my life. I stared to remember that I am not a violent person. The accuser has no bruises. But the people she complained to tried a little too hard to make me look guilty. I was given no time to get a lawyer. My work became against me. A person at work told me that he hoped that I die. I got a restraining order, but I would never hurt someone so bad as saying that I hope you die. So I guess the accuser was saying that she was psychologically abused by me. But then I found out that using the word mental illness as evidence is defamation whether it is true or not. Because thank you lady for bringing up mental illness and records.

    I am still struggling to see what you class as the point of this? not all crimes are created equally, would you charge anthony with capital murder if all he did was steal something? No, so we are not all criminals, we are humans who have violated the laws that have governed our justice system, the bias against those who are less fortunate have a bigger uphill battle than those with class and a race that is not over represented.
