It has contributed to the United States comprising approximately 25 percent of the world’s prison population — despite representing about 5 percent of the world’s total population. Annie Fray’s youngest son Trenton Copeland, 33, was sentenced to life in prison for a cocaine offense. Being found guilty of conspiring to distribute and possess more than five kilograms of cocaine, combined with prior drug offenses, carried a mandatory life sentence. Fray is participating in “Hope for the Holidays” in hopes her son Copeland will receive clemency. “You [can] tell through [prison] visitations there is a higher number of African Americans who are incarcerated,” she told DiversityInc. “I know they made bad decisions and have to pay the consequences,” she said. But in regards to her son, “I don’t believe Trenton deserves a life sentence.” The push for clemencies is in the shadow of the next administration where it is uncertain if criminal justice reform will remain a priority. “The criminal justice system and clemency isn’t just an Obama issue,” Byrd said. “We hope it’s really incumbent on the next administration to continue this legacy.” On the campaign trail, President-elect Trump called himself the “law and order” candidate who would crack down on violent crime. But, except for talking about its impact on national security and immigration, Trump did not get very specific about criminal justice policy. In a Facebook live video last week, Jones said there could perhaps be opportunities to continue criminal justice reform legislation under a Trump administration. He said Republicans like Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, “who’s very close to [Trump],” and others, including former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and House Speaker Paul Ryan, have been talking about criminal justice reform. So, “there are some opportunities there.” However, Jones added, “There are certain villains like Sen. Tom Cotton who might get in the way in the Senate.” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) has been an opponent of criminal justice reform. According to Mother Jones, Trump is considering a cabinet position for Cotton. “I think that he is a very talented guy,” Trump said. “He’s also a very popular, he’s a very popular person. So … [he is] high on the list for something at least. That I can tell you.”
