Description

Today, Hunter spoke with two law professors, Kay Levine and Russell Gold, to discuss their law review article calling for an increase in the public advocacy of public defenders. As a natural extension of the main goals of the show, Hunter loved exploring the potential political power public defenders could wield if they were more vocal. Interestingly as well, both Kay and Russell offered important juxtapositions between public defenders, prosecutors, and corporate attorneys and the way each engages with public advocacy out of the court room.     Guests: Kay Levine, Professor of Law, Emory Law School Russell Gold, Professor of Law, Alabama University School of Law   Resources: Public Voice of the Defender Law Review Article https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4416723  Kay’s Article on the FL Prosecutors https://news.bloomberglaw.com/white-collar-and-criminal-law/discriminatory-policy-pinned-on-wall-should-shock-all-prosecutors Kay’s Professor Page https://law.emory.edu/faculty/faculty-profiles/levine-profile.html Russell Gold Professor Page https://www.law.ua.edu/directory/People/view/Russell_Gold     Contact Hunter Parnell: Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN

Anyone paying attention can tell you that our criminal legal system is perpetuating cruelty and harm, but the complexity of the legal world overwhelms most people simply trying to get through another day. Public Defenseless explores the rot in the justice system and what we can do about it. Join host, Hunter Parnell, as he interviews top defense attorneys and criminal justice stakeholders from across the country as they pull apart the convoluted web of our criminal justice system. Like so many of you, Hunter is not an attorney, simply tired of a news cycle and talking heads that offer no real solutions to the ever-growing list of problems we face. Hunter hopes that with this information, you will share his belief that ordinary people still can make a difference.
