In this episode Major Allen Abrams breaks down two recent cases from the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.  In Nelson the issue is whether the appellant voluntarily unlocked his cellular phone when he did so under a mistaken belief that, because the government had a search authorization, he had no choice but to unlock the phone.  In Horne the court addressed a UCI issue created by trial counsel and victims counsel (I choose no  apostrophe) colluding to deter AFOSI from interviewing the complainant's husband despite knowing the husband was the first "outcry" witness and had information favorable to the defense.  Finally, Allen does a great job of describing how he allows the story of the case to present itself as he works through the facts, law, and questions the case presents.  Enjoy!
