John, failing to
re-elect Dallas District Attorney John Creuzot could have serious
consequences — even lethal in some cases.

Republican opponent Faith Johnson just this week said she would pursue the
death penalty if elected, a stark contrast to John’s commitment to not use
it in Dallas.

John has not sought the death penalty since he was elected.

The death penalty is barbaric. There’s no justice involved. It’s never
been about justice. It’s punitive. A crude show of force. And it
disproportionately kills far more Black and brown people than white
people. 

And we need DAs like John in office who won’t use this practice to kill
more Black and brown people in jail.

nation to install even more pro-justice DAs who will join John in this
fight to reject the death penalty?

But that’s not all.

John got rid of prosecuting first-time misdemeanor marijuana offenses when
he stepped into office.

He earned praise from researchers who published a report from SMU’s Deason
Criminal Justice Reform Center. Researchers found Black people in Dallas
County were grossly overrepresented among those arrested for low-level
drug offenses.

But Johnson said she would start prosecuting people for marijuana offenses
again — setting up unnecessary and useless programs for folks to avoid
marijuana-related charges that should not even happen in the first place.

“That’s not anything that’s rehabilitative,” Creuzot said about Johnson’s
proposal to handle marijuana convictions. “That’s just make-busy
nonsense.”

It’s clear that if we don’t get John the support he needs to win, there
could be serious consequences for criminal justice in Dallas and beyond.
The racial disparities that John successfully reduced could become the
reality again. ⁠And what happens in big cities like Dallas influences so
many more.

donation right now to DA John Creuzot’s campaign and Real Justice so we
can launch his campaign, and the 8 others we are working on, to victory.

Thank you,

Real Justice
