From within the razor-wired walls of Missouri’s South Central Correctional Center (SCCC), Mark A. Jones stands as a defiant voice against a justice system that has long forgotten its oath. With unwavering conviction, he exposes the silent yet deadly erosion of due process, calling out a corrupted alliance between judges and prosecutors who use secretive hand signals—a perverse form of backroom justice—to manipulate court proceedings and betray the rule of law.

These clandestine gestures aren’t just unethical; they’re unconstitutional. They silence truth, bury innocence, and uphold a system designed to convict, not to correct. Mark speaks on what many fear to admit: that courtrooms have become performance stages, where outcomes are often pre-decided and defendants are treated as expendable statistics.

This betrayal is protected by the insidious doctrine of qualified immunity, which shields public officials from consequences even when their actions blatantly violate civil rights.

Mark insists it’s time to dismantle qualified immunity, to hold judges, prosecutors, and law enforcement to the same legal standards as the people they condemn. “No one should be above the law, especially not those who swear to uphold it,” he declares.
