Innocent but Incarcerated: Reforming Oklahoma’s Criminal Pretrial Procedures to Combat Discrimination Against Indigent Defendants Introduction Imagine a woman of thirty-two years of age. She works hard to make ends meet as a single mom, working two jobs and raising her two school- aged children. But she can be too trusting and finds herself arrested for receiving stolen property.1 Unable to post $500 cash bond,2 let alone hire a private attorney, she sits in the local jail while her case trudges through the district court’s backlogged criminal docket. She loses both of her jobs and, adding insult to injury, accrues a daily jail fee that she would unmistakably prefer to avoid—if only she could afford to leave. She applies for free representation through her state’s contract attorney system and is declared indigent, but she faces a predicament once her family manages to scrape together enough money to secure her pretrial release.

Johnson presidency is unique in its collection of recordings of the chief executive’s activities. In the 1960s, the White House Naval Photographic Unit (NPC) began producing films that highlighted special presidential trips, visits, and events. Commander Thomas Atkins produced these films for the NPC, starting in 1963 in the John F. Kennedy administration and continuing through the Johnson years. About 43 of the 70+ films are available for viewing on the Lyndon B. Johnson Library’s YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL853F6EAB74B64D1D . Hofstra University’s Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency has a full digitized set of the Atkins films, which are available for research in the Joan and Donald E. Axinn Library’s Special Collections room. In the summer of 2013, Ms. Nancy Lindemeyer (who, along with her husband, Robert Lindemeyer, served with Commander Atkins in the Navy) contacted Hofstra on behalf of the Atkins family to see if the Kalikow Center might be a suitable repository for the collection. Thanks to the generosity of the Atkins family and the cheerful, unstinting efforts of the Lindemeyers, the original 16 mm films were transferred to DVDs and became part of Hofstra’s holdings in 2015.
