In honor of what was, we are excited to launch our 'Salvaged' series on September 1st. While we were unable to recover every episode, we were able to retrieve a few hidden gems. Our first installment? 40Tons: The Corvain Cooper Story (2 part release)
May The Expect Effect rest peacefully.
Call Me Nik airs this fall.
Part 1 "Pre-Release"
On the 28th of January 2013, Corvain Cooper was in his home. That day, he was accompanying his eldest daughter to her drill team competition. While in his car, about to exit his driveway, federal agents appeared.
One of Corvain’s childhood friends was under arrest. The friend gave authorities 100 names in exchange for a reduced sentence. His name was among them. Corvain dealt in cannabis as a younger man, but he had been out of the game for years. So many, in fact, that he was a few short months away from the statute of limitations. So, he refused the plea deal and fought the charge in court. The system punished him for that choice.
He was found responsible for the entirety (40T) of the cannabis transported by the group. Under California’s Three Strikes law, he was sentenced to life imprisonment. Since sentencing, his "Three Strikes" felonies have been retroactively reduced to misdemeanors. If Corvain went on trial today, he would not receive a life sentence.
“When he was sent to prison for the rest of his life for selling marijuana, Corvain Cooper was 34 years old, a father to two young daughters, ages 4 and 8, a fiancee, a son, a friend, and a small business owner selling clothing and footwear.” (Change.org)
