This week we welcome back friend of the show and experienced attorney in the fields of serious personal injury and civil rights litigation, Sean Walton.

Sean consistently represents several families in Columbus who have had loved ones murdered at the hands of the Columbus Police Department -- including Casey Goodson Jr., Henry Green V and too many more.

As an Adjunct Professor at Capital University Law School, Sean lectures frequently on issues ranging from knowing your rights and how to properly document instances of excessive police force to trends and best practices in personal injury and civil rights litigation.

On this week's episode we discuss how the mechanisms of white supremacy, corruption in the Columbus Police Department, unchecked power of the Fraternal Order of Police, establishment politics invested in the status quo, negligent local journalism, and a criminal justice system designed to uphold white supremacy work together to make Columbus one of the most dangerous cities for Black people to live in the U.S.

Uniquely qualified to shine a light on exactly how the underbelly of Columbus operates, we are so lucky to have Sean back on the show share his wealth of knowledge with us.
