This episode we have a really special guest! Emily O’Brien, a young professional from Toronto, was arrested at Person airport in Toronto, fresh off a flight from St. Lucia, with 130,000 dollars worth of cocaine strapped to her body. Emily joins us to talk about her arrest, her journey through the justice system, her time in prison, and her new business work to help women reintegrate into society.

You can read more about Emily’s story in the Hamilton Spectator.

And you can keep up-to-day with Emily’s amazing story and her new business at Cons & Kernels and you can follow Emily on Instagram @territuesday.

But as usual we bury the lead and start off with some sadness and talk about the death of the wonderful Paul Dewar. And then dive into the trial of Ottawa police officer Danial Montsion who is charge with manslaughter in the death of Abdirahman Abdi.
