Broken Law

Episode 110: SCOTUS Keeps the Innocent Incarcerated


Listen Later

We cover a buffet of Supreme Court cases on this episode. Christopher Wright Durocher speaks with Professor Alexis J. Hoag-Fordjour about an array of criminal legal cases decided this term and the Court's persistent indifference to potential innocence. He later speaks with Lindsay Langholz about the Court's decision in Moore v. Harper, regarding the so-called independent state legislature theory.
