Justice Delayed

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a devastating toll on everyone around the world. Many people forget about one of the most vulnerable populations affected: the incarcerated. Justin contracted COVID during his incarceration, while at the same time battling a life threatening illness. His wife Casey fought tirelessly to not only get him adequate medical care, but to get him released. Listen as they recount their harrowing ordeal to Jodie and Billy.

Imagine witnessing a family member executed by the state. Now imagine witnessing it happen twice. This is what Stan Allridge had to endure when he watched two of his brothers put to death. Two visceral memories burned into his mind, he is an example of the "other" victims of the death penalty. Like Sister Helen Prejean, who counseled Stan's older brother before he was executed, Stan is a death penalty abolitionist and discusses his heartbreaking story with Jodie and Billy. Don't miss it.

There's perhaps no other name in history more ubiquitous with death penalty abolition than Sister Helen Prejean. Her book "Dead Man Walking: An Eyewitness Account of the Death Penalty in the United States" sparked a national conversation around capital punishment and inspired the Academy Award winning film starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn. A stark ally of the Sinclair's, Sister Helen discusses our current state in American criminal justice with Jodie and Billy and her tireless work to end all executions in the United States. Don't miss this episode. To learn more about Sister Helen Prejean, visit her website and follow her on Twitter.
