POD: 'A Christmas joint'


Listen Later

Erin and Aaron chatted through three segments: an in-depth discussion on Aaron's recent story with incarcerated writer Kevin Light-Roth on a treatment program for incarcerated individuals seeking early release, a rapidfire "We Doomscroll So You Don't Have to" segment listing some big headlines from this week, and an update on the case of Teresa Borrenpohl, the woman dragged out of the CDA Town Hall earlier this year.

Relevant reading:

  • Want out of prison early? Navigate the drug treatment labyrinth: Dept. of Corrections says people who tested positive for illicit substances decades ago still require treatment if they want early release. Some of them don’t even have a history of addiction, but the prison’s behavioral health contractor places the inmates into their treatment program anyway.
  • Doomscroll rapid headlines: Ban the Address passedunemployment insurance for striking workers is headed to Gov. Ferguson's desk and next week the Spokane City Council will vote on an ordinance to protect LGBTQIA2S+ people.
  • Teresa Borrenpohl update: our initial coverage, recent coverage by The Spokesman on the noninvestigation into the sheriff, Borrenpohl's lawsuit and the charges filed against the private security firm members.
