In California "at least 1,317 people have been waiting in county jails for more than 3 years. For 332 of them, it’s been longer than 5 years."

Both the California and US constitutions guarantee a right to a speedy trial, and California criminal code has specific provisions on how quickly trials must begin. Who is holding the California government responsible for this? What an outrage.

Wowzer, right. That is...pretty compelling. And incredibly illegal. Does California not know it doesn't have a right to just incarcerate people for no official reason?
