In this clip from Episode 36 of See You In Court, trial lawyer Craig Jones explains how government agencies and insurers often spend years blocking access to records and delaying cases to avoid accountability.

Using a real prison death investigation, Craig shows how a lack of transparency can leave families without answers until a civil lawsuit forces the truth into the open. Once the facts were revealed, it became clear that the case was tragic, but not a lawsuit. That outcome highlights the true purpose of the civil justice system: uncovering the truth, not generating claims.

This moment reflects the broader theme of the episode, why access to court is essential, why government liability law matters, and how civil cases protect transparency and the rule of law when power is used to conceal it.

Listen to the full episode of See You In Court to understand how the civil justice system works when it is allowed to do its job.
