217: Securing Life over Death in the Aurora Theater Shooting Case w/Doug Wilson


Listen Later

Today, Hunter sat down once again with the former Chief Public Defender of Colorado, Doug Wilson. This time, Doug and Hunter discuss the Aurora Theater Shooting case. Just like the episode about the Parkland shooting, today’s episode is designed to help people understand how such a heinous crime could end in a life over death sentence. In examining these cases, hopefully people can understand the power of mitigating evidence and a well- funded criminal defense team can have on a criminal case.

 

Guests:

Doug Wilson, Former Chief Public Defender of the State of Colorado
