Unfortunately the people who typically get sent to shitty prisons don’t tend to have a lot of familial money to fight a legal battle with. And when they do, it tends to be used up by fighting false imprisonment on the first place.
The system is rigged such that only those with funds have legitimately air-able grievances. Which doesn’t apply to most of us.
Probably true, and I hope they are approaching people for it, but I also can’t blame people who are grieving if they choose not to go through with it, even pro-bono. The trauma is it’s own price, and being forced to relive it for years is a huge price to pay for some money.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the ACLU or a similar organization would be salivating to take the case for free.
