These are the times that try men's souls. It's incredible what we've seen in the last few weeks concerning law enforcement and its effect on everyday life here in America. One of the centerpieces of most police reform efforts is abolishing a doctrine known as Qualified Immunity. The doctrine of qualified immunity is a judicially created immunity shield that shields law enforcement, and government actors from wrongdoing. The victim of a government action in these types of cases has to prove that the government actor or officer violated a constitutional right and that that right was clearly established. While this sounds relatively easy to prove, it's almost impossible under the current standards created by our courts.
On this episode, Matt Green talks Qualified Immunity with the Vice President of the Criminal Justice Division at the Cato Institute, Clark Neily. Clark has been a longtime proponent of reform and abolishment of qualified immunity. He joins us today to discuss the history of qualified immunity, where it came from, and what the future may hold.

Before God, I am innocent of the crime for which I'm about to die, Sir! I am innocent. I'm innocent. What can I do when I'm buried? An Oak tree with a hundred roots will grow out of my grave to prove my innocence.
This was the dying declaration of Charles RS Boyington. Perhaps Mobile, Alabama's most notorious convicted the defendant of capital murder, the May 10th, 1834 killing of Nathaniel Frost in the Church Street Cemetery in Mobile, Alabama. It's perhaps the most heinous and memorable crime in Mobile's history. Most heinous not necessarily for the brutality and depravity of the murder, but for the nagging question burned into every Mobilian psyche who has ever heard the story. Did Charles Boyington murder his friend, Nathaniel Frost? Was he innocent? Contemporary accounts leave no doubt as to Boyington guilt, but over the last 150 years, new facts have come to light, and more importantly, new witnesses have come forward. Today the case stands as a testament to the dangers of capital punishment predicated solely upon circumstantial evidence. There were no witnesses presented at trial to the crime, and Boyington maintained his innocence until his dying breath.

On this episode, host Matt Green talks with Mary Palmer, author of a fascinating new book Boyington Oak: A Grave Injustice, about this case, and is spearheading an effort to have Boyington posthumously pardoned. Mary tells us some more details about this famous case, and it's defendant Charles Boyington.
{Editors Note: 2 corrections in the Boyington story. The printing company is Pollard and Dade not Dade and Pollard. Also, Florence White's deathbed confession was 60 years (not 30) after the crime in 1894. It was said that she produced the watch on her deathbed.}
