When Faith is Complicit in the State's Violence

Nineteen Butler County faith leaders and 16 other clergy from outside the county sent a letter "of concern" to the Commissioners of Butler County, the Sheriff's Office, and the general public to speak about how two of their congregation members were detained at Butler County Jail (with one of the two later deported).
