Today, the ACLU of Virginia sent a letter to Governor Terry McAuliffe asking him to review the case of Reginald "Neli" Latson, a young man with intellectual and developmental disabilities who has been held in solitary confinement in a state correctional facility for almost a year.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Virginia today praised the McAuliffe administration’s commitment to restoring the rights of all disenfranchised Virginians and the establishment of a much easier application process for individuals convicted of more serious felonies.

A letter from ACLU of Virginia to members of the Virginia State Crime Commission recommends against any legislation to criminalize teenage sexting, saying it would raise serious constitutional concerns and also result in feeding many more Virginia teens into the school-to-prison pipeline
