Stanley Huff

 

age 55; serving 15 years

charged with trafficking a half-kilo of crack cocaine

 

"Today a friend and I sat down and made a list of all the men and women that have been charged or sentenced under federal drugs 'crack.' We came up with 48 names, all black. We went back to Oct. '94 and just this one jail. Not one white has graced these portals with a crack cocaine charge (federal, that is). I'm working on a claim of 'selective prosecution' by the federal government.

"The majority of us were charged with violation of Minnesota State Statutes. After about a month, the Feds step in and file federal charges. Creating 'selective prosecution' laws that affect one race over another is so unconstitutional as to reek the stench that slavery held for so many years. This should be brought to the attention of the people on a national level.
