From fine china to model trains, millennials and Gen Xers stand to inherit much more than money.
Boomers Are Passing Down Fortunes — And Way, Way Too Much Stuff

Merry Christmas to all, the Supreme Court has said giving juveniles life without parole is chill, if the judge has discretion. Ho ho ho.
The New Mexico Attorney General’s recent opinion limiting parole for people given life sentences as juveniles coincides with an increased focus on punitive policies for juvenile crime in the state.
New Mexico Officials Block a Pathway to Freedom for Juvenile Lifers Despite Reforms
