Maryland's new governor Wes Moore on the power of second chances

TL;DR

For instance: in Maryland (as in most other states), even if someone doesn't personally kill anyone, if they're involved in a felony that leads to a murder, they can be charged with so-called "felony murder."Moore told CBS News he supports a bill that would prohibit that charge for juveniles.I'm absolutely open to looking at how can we come up with ways of being able to make sure that our society is accountable, yet at the same time, never forgetting we're still talking about children in all of this."Bishop Donte Hickman, who leads Southern Baptist Church in East Baltimore, where Moore is a member, said the congregation is very excited that one of their own will be running the state government.Because in my case, I'm sitting there in the back of a police car with my friend, and then eventually after, you know, a talk and a lecture, the officer pulls me out of the car, unlocks the cuffs, and lets me go.""
