Execution: inside the capital jury room


Listen Later

Professor Scott Sundby is a law professor who has spent more than 30 years studying capital jurors - the ordinary citizens tasked with choosing between a death sentence and life in prison. He takes us inside the jury room to reveal what it’s really like to sit on a capital case, the intense pressures and moral dilemmas jurors face, the regret some carry for years, and how the experience can leave a lasting mark long after the trial ends.

Kaigan Carrie is a criminologist, exploring what life is really like for prison officers. To follow her work, connect with her below.
