We explore the consequences ... more

  • Excellently presented podcast

    Excellent expose’ of the rampant abuse & power of US’ legal system - and also America’s most vulnerable - by those meant to protect, monitor & uphold it. Excellently presented from start to finish. Genuinely respectful of the victims / their loved ones wronged by the culprits abusing the systems. Highly recommend.

  • Disappointing

    This is what I call pussyfooting-journalism. The journalist was frustratingly timid in her interview with that dingleberry sheriff. Why not confront him with what she already had and knew? Why cater to his blatant lies and giggle like a shy schoolgirl when he behaved inappropriately (i.e., trying to grab her notes)? That was a cringe fest! For an investigative journalist from The Washington Post with an excellent lead, this was abysmal. I wish the New York Times had this story instead. They woul... more

    The overall theme of this pod is pretty clear. Mostly agree with it. But, and there is always a but, this podcast has been overdone to try to get an emotional response from us and not really get to the underlying problem. The problem ; too many guns in the USA. In addition, drug use is rampant causing more emotional responses. I am not smart enough to have a answer for this but there are others who can. More discussion and suggested solutions needed. Hope so and hope soon.
