  • Response to your inquiry

    I’ve only listened to the 1st three episodes so far. I appreciate what you’re doing here. I am currently looking at over 300 years even though the charges are likely to be dropped because they are silly on their face. It still causes me and my family stress and this shouldn’t be happening to me or anyone else.

  • One sided

    Great reporting and information but extremely one sided. Would love to see the attention and effort put in to see the full picture on both sides of the issues so everyone can learn through different perspectives.

  • More far-left propaganda

    Why does “criminal justice reform” always boil down to turning the criminal into the victim? It’s actually very simple….don’t break the law and you have zero chances of going to prison. Black and brown men aren’t being targeted. This has been thoroughly debunked time and time again. The statistics just do not back up this narrative. The creators of this podcasts are run of the mill race hustlers. Period
