A public safety offense makes it a crime to do dangerous things — sell adulterated food, or store dangerous chemicals in unregulated sites, or release pollutants without a permit — and a prosecutor doesn’t have to prove a corporation’s state of mind, just that they did it. — PolitiTweet.org

Hmmm. Could this sudden Polluter Page enthusiasm for civil liberties relate to the long-standing Koch effort to get rid of corporate “public safety” crimes — crimes that don’t require criminal mens rea? https://t.co/bCo4RNeFBx — PolitiTweet.org

I remember how hard the Koch operation tried to push that “reform” into criminal justice reform. As a lead author, I fought back hard, and stopped it. But they never stop. And the Polluter Page loves a polluter. — PolitiTweet.org
