Drunk Law School episodes
- Bonus: Happy Birthday Annelise! (People v. Knoller)
Content warning: this episode contains mentions of grievous bodily harm.
Hello drunk law students! We are back to bring you a special episode from the DLS archive--featuring a special guest, terrible birthday singing, legal malfeasance, a highly questionable adoption, and yes, man-eating dogs. This episode was recorded in May 2020. Enjoy!
Show notes
- The Mamas & The Papas -- San Francisco
- You can find some of the naughty pics that Knoller sent to Paul Schneider here
Further Reading (courtesy of Annelise)
- Rolling Stone article covering the case
- Articles on Knoller's initial sentencing and subsequent parole denial
- Whipple's partner, Sharon Smith, also succeeded in suing Knoller and Noel for $1,500,000 in civil damages. The civil case was notable in that the San Francisco Superior Court ruled in July 2001 that Smith was entitled to bring suit as Whipple's domestic partner under the Equal Protection Clause, against the defense's argument that a same-sex unmarried partner did not have standing. She donated some of the money to Saint Mary's College of California to fund the women's lacrosse team (where Whipple coached before her death).

50 min - Dolly, Get Your Bag! (Filartiga v. Peña-Irala)
What do you do if after fleeing from an oppressive regime in your home country of Paraguay and coming to the United States for a better life, you discover that the former head of the police force—a man who tortured and murdered your brother for political dissidence—had also fled to the U.S.A.? You dust off a two hundred year old law about piracy and GET. YOUR. BAG.
To read about why the term "alien" is marginalizing and explore a new alternative coined by our brilliant friend Dr. Arturo Castellanos, click here.
37 min - Dolly, Get Your Bag! (Filartiga v. Peña-Irala)
When you've just arrived in America after fleeing from the dictatorship back home in your native Paraguay, the last person you want to see is the former chief of police there, the same man who tortured and murdered your brother. But that's what happened to Dolly Filartiga. So what did she do? She got her bag.

34 min - Bye WeekWe’ve been cooking up lots of good things over here at DLS emporium, including two new guest recordings! Instead of an episode this week, we encourage everyone to take a break. There has been a lot going on in the news: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s passing and the indictment (or lack thereof) in the Breonna Taylor case, among other things. Please take time to talk and reflect with your family, your friends, and yourself. And have an easy fast, if you observe. We are a Jewish podcast after all.4 min

38 min - A Supreme Court Slap Fight (Marbury v. Madison)
The year is 1789. Back in those days, having actual slap fights in public was considered bad form, and somebody usually died in a duel (looking at you, Alexander Hamilton). So if you're John Adams and Thomas Jefferson and you want to have a slap fight but not actually, where do you go? The Supreme Court, of course!
Drinks: Bulleit Bourbon Kentucky Mule and Bee's Knuckles (combine 2 oz. bourbon, 1 oz. honey syrup, 1 oz. fresh lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp sriracha or more to taset; shake with ice and serve in a coupe glass)

About Drunk Law School
From the publisher's feed
This podcast has everything: sassy judges, cults, identity fraud, too much Fireball, the oxford comma, and the Five-Year-Old Smackdown, which is that thing where a little kid pulls the chair out from under his aunt during a family reunion.
Subscribe to hear what happens when a law student and a podcaster mix liquor with the law. There are probably a few laws when drinking Claws, but we couldn’t tell you what they are.
