This is one of many reasons why BOP stands for "Backwards on Purpose" in the prison community: Even before this ruling made it worse for selected individuals, challenging your conviction or sentence was pretty much a justice-free process. 😢

Especially when the victims of it haven't done nearly enough to be locked up. And the ones who have are just products of their time and place, more often than not.
Dystopian as fuck.
