  • Unlimited respect for these attorneys

    I’ve been listening to podcasts by The Prosecutors for a long time and have always found them thought-provoking, well-researched, and convincing regarding their knowledge of the law and applicable facts. Absolutely brilliant. Also, they are excellent speakers: clear, well-paced, easy to understand.

  • The Hypocrites: Opinion Briefs

    While I agree that the prosecution of James Comey isn’t great, it’s so funny that The Hypocrites are so mad about it and say that it’s going to lead to political prosecution in the next democratic administration. I don’t remember you crying for hours about the political prosecution of the previous democratic administration, and that maybe the current situation is a result of that.

  • Please explain

    Hello!

    I’m so confused about where all the checks and balances are in our government.

    I wanted to know how the department of Justice works in our country. I’ve been under the impression that it is separate from the administration. I assumed the DOJ were the lawyers for the people.

    I would love an explanation as to why the systems seem to be breaking down

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

223. The Lindsay Clancy Case with Mama Psychologists
Q: What practical steps can listeners take if they suspect postpartum mental health issues in themselves or someone they know?
Seek help from a health care professional, find a therapist trained in perinatal mental health, advocate for appropriate psychiatric evaluation, and involve family support to ensure ongoing monitoring and safety for both mother and child.
223. The Lindsay Clancy Case with Mama Psychologists
Q: How does the Massachusetts insanity standard differ from the more common McNaughton Rule, and why does that matter in this case?
Massachusetts uses a broader standard where lacking substantial capacity to conform conduct to the law can excuse criminal responsibility even if the person understands the act is wrong, which can affect verdicts in cases like Lindsay Clancy; the distinction matters for whether she could be found not guilty by reason of insanity.
223. The Lindsay Clancy Case with Mama Psychologists
Q: What is postpartum psychosis and how does it differ from postpartum depression or anxiety?
Postpartum psychosis involves a break from reality with fixed delusions or hallucinations, and cognitive distortions that can be present alongside or after anxiety and depression, making timely recognition and urgent treatment critical.
219. Randy Barnett and Felony Review
Q: What drew you to become a prosecutor instead of a defense attorney?
I was drawn to the constructive, building side of law and the belief that the role of a prosecutor is to do justice, even if that means not prosecuting when the evidence isn't there, which felt more aligned with my sense of public service.
215. Mangione Suppression Rulings
Q: What is the core issue with Mangione's backpack search under New York law, and how does it differ from federal law?
The core issue is whether the initial search fell within the grabbable area of the arrestee; under New York law, moving the backpack away from Mangione can make the search invalid, whereas federal law allows more leeway under the exigency and inevitable discovery theories, leading to different outcomes in suppression rulings.
