I have written previously on Security Debrief’s pages about the need to end the sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. As the former head of the DEA, this stance may surprise some. However, there are solid reasons, based on the law and justice, as to why this needs to be done.
Yesterday, I testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on this matter and explained why I believe this reform is needed. You can read my testimony here.
