Black Panther is one of Marvel’s most celebrated movies, but when you look at it through the lens of real-world law, almost every major moment raises serious legal questions. In this episode of Doug Defends, real defense attorney Doug Ridley breaks down the biggest legal problems in Black Panther, including a killing on U.S. soil, the fallout of an illegal cover-up, stolen cultural artifacts, Wakanda’s trial-by-combat succession system, international weapons trafficking, and covert CIA involvement inside a sovereign nation.
