Washington Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders unveiled Sunday a criminal justice overhaul to"reform every aspect of America's dysfunctional criminal justice system" by ending"for-profit greed" in the system, expanding inmates' rights and changing how policing works in the country.
According to the plan, if elected president, Sanders -- who has long campaigned on ending for-profit prisons -- would ban cash bail and civil asset forfeiture, as well as increase the number of public defenders and funding for them to better serve certain communities, according to the plan.
