The Criminal Justice System on Trial


Listen Later

So, episode 136 – a new record.  But you know that right? Because you subscribe to the show and have already rated and reviewed the podcast – right? You should.
We are joined by Benjamin Perrin to talk about his new book, Indictment: The Criminal Justice System on Trial. Ben is a professor at the University of British Columbia, Peter A. Allard School of Law and national best-selling author. He has served in the Prime Minister’s Office as in-house legal counsel and lead policy advisor on criminal justice and public safety, although his views on criminal justice have changed juuuust a little bit since then.
Michael also rants about the governments new bail laws that were rushed through the House of Commons with little debate and no study.
Remember, you can hang with some law nerds in The Docket’s Discord chatroom.  Join the Discord channel, take part in the ongoing chat, and (sometimes) listen to live recordings with this link: https://discord.gg/2TzUamZ
And as always, a huge thanks to my firm AGP LLP who have not murdered me for editing the podcast at work!
