A lot happened in week 3 of the Delphi trial. Richard Allen's many incriminating statements were revealed, including confessions with information it seems only the killer could know. The state rested, and the defense began its case. We break it all down.

The Maryland Supreme Court has spoken, and it wasn't good for Adnan Syed. What does it mean? And what's next?

The police have made an arrest in the quadruple murders in Moscow, Idaho. What do we know? And what's next? We discuss live with our Patrons.

We take a look at the horrific quadruple murder in Moscow, Idaho. What do we know (not much)? What are the police looking for? And when will we find out who committed this terrible crime?

Some people give public defenders a bad name, but we love them. In this episode, we talk about how public defenders work and about the appointed attorneys in the Delphi case.

We're joined by our friends from Murder Sheet to discuss the probable cause affidavit which was finally unsealed in the Delphi case.

The hearing to unseal the probable cause affidavit in Delphi brought with it a lot of news. But with Alice in Alaska, where can we turn for expert analysis? Our good friend Bob Motta from Defense Diaries not only fills in but brings expertise from the other side of the aisle to the discussion.

In most cities and states, you can be arrested for the terrible crime of...feeding the homeless? But is feeding the homeless actually a form of speech or even religious worship? We dive in to a strange and quirky area of the law.

You wanted to talk sovereign citizens and the Darrell Brooks trial. Be careful what you wish for.

We talk recent developments in the case against Richard Allen, including the charges, continuing investigation, and the sealed probable cause affidavit.

So much has been going on in legal news. We discuss Alex Jones, the Kristin Smart trials, and, of course, Darrell Brooks.

If a social media company decides to censor what you can say on their platform, is there anything you can do about it? Or does the First Amendment give them carte blanche to do whatever they want?

Karen Read's attorneys recently sought to have two of the charges against her dismissed, arguing that a jury actually found her not guilty on those counts. A judge has ruled, and we break it down.

The Adnan Syed story had people asking us about the role of prosecutors in preventing wrongful convictions. What should they do and what are their limits? We discuss that and more.

How do judges interpret statutes? What are the different theories about what laws mean? We tackle those questions and more.

They say that a man who represents himself has a fool for a lawyer. What are the rules if you want to represent yourself? And should you do it?

To the delight of many, Adnan Syed was released from prison this week, his conviction for murdering Hae Min Lee vacated. Surprisingly, this was the result of the state's own motion. How did this happen? What arguments did the state make? And did the court get it right?

Your daughter's ex-boyfriend comes to your house and tries to break in. You warn him you have a gun, but he just keeps coming. You fire three shots and the man dies. Is it murder? Or is it self defense?

Can you prevent your wife from testifying against you? Are your conversations with your priest protected by the law? And what are the limits of attorney-client privilege? We discuss all this and more.

Can you be convicted of murder, even if you didn't kill anyone? Turns out, you can! We discuss felony murder and Brett rants about Britain and the murder of Andrew Harper.

The Casey Anthony case raised a lot of questions. Can Casey Anthony ever be charged again? Could the judge have overturned the jury's verdict? What obligation does the defense have if they know she's guilty? We answer these questions and more.

Jose Baez had some of you asking--just what are the limits to what a defense attorney can say during a trial? And what in the world was going on in the Alex Jones/Info Wars defamation case?

In this episode, we tackle some civil law. The arbitrator's decision in the NFL v. Deshaun Watson case created a firestorm. Why did the arbitrator do what she did, did she get it right, and what's next? Update: We speculated that the NFL might not want to appeal because no one wants Roger Goodell to hear the case. The NFL did appeal, and Goodell promptly stepped aside. So the appeal will be heard by yet another independent arbitrator. We will keep you informed as this interesting case develops.

You might think taking someone's home and giving it to a multi-billion dollar corporation is the most un-American thing imaginable. Five justices of the Supreme Court disagree with you. We examine one of the most universally reviled cases in Supreme Court history--Kelo v. New London.

It was a story that outraged the nation--Justin Harris left his son to die in a hot car while he sexted with an underage girl. He was convicted of murder, but the nation was outraged again when the Georgia Supreme Court vacated his conviction. Why did they do it, and did they get it right? Join us for a dive into the rules of evidence and Rule 403.

What is precedent anyway? And why does it seem like the courts are always changing it? We get real nerdy and talk about how precedent binds courts...until it doesn't.

One trial, two juries? How does that work? We look at the trial of Paul and Ruben Flores to find out.

We take a look at the West Memphis 3's efforts to DNA test evidence, explain why the trial court got it right, and give our thoughts on next steps.

Did the Supreme Court just gut Miranda while at the same time letting cops come into your house and search it without a warrant if you live 100 miles from the border? We look at these cases and explain why maybe TikTok isn't your best source for legal news.

We continue our look at ineffective assistance of counsel through the lens of the Adnan Syed case.

We dive into the standard for ineffective assistance. Just how bad does it have to be for a convicted person to get another trial? The answer? Pretty bad.

Did a man really miss out on a lawyer because he asked for a "lawyer, dog" instead of just asking for a "lawyer"? And we read an insightful email on the Dammion Heard case.

Did the Supreme Court recently gut the lifeline for those claiming wrongful convictions? And an update on the Moab murders of Kylen Turner and Chrystal Schulte.

It's the defamation trial of the century, Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard. We talk about the legal standard for defamation, what's really going on here, and who we think is going to win (and our reaction to the answer). We also talk about the difference between civil and criminal juries and why this case was brought in Virginia.

Everyone has a right to counsel, but it's one you can give up. Even if you don't mean to. Sarah Boone burned through 8 different counsel. She didn't get a ninth. We explain why.

In a shocking turn of events, the Alec Baldwin case was dismissed due to a failure of the prosecution to provide full discovery to the defense. Erlinda Ocampo Johnson gave the opening statement in the prosecution of Baldwin. But when she learned critical evidence was withheld, she urged her colleagues to dismiss the case. And when they would not, she withdrew. Erlinda joins us to discuss this extraordinary act of legal courage.

Enjoy a Frisky as defense attorneys Addie and Kayla, the hosts of Drinks with Defenders podcast, join us to discuss the important role of defense attorneys in our justice system.

What considerations go into crafting a just sentence? What are the rules for sentencing? And what are the goals a sentence of imprisonment is meant to accomplish?

We look at some of the high profile cases that the Supreme Court ruled on "this season" and what that means for the administrative state, Presidential immunity, and more.

This is an interview we did with Kevin and Aine from The Murder Sheet podcast. Our discussion ranges from Delphi to Karen Read and then to the responsibilities that both true crime creators and consumers share in creating a safer space for everyone.

We finish up our discussion of week 2 in the Delphi trial.

We discuss the mistrial in the Karen Read case and talk about what's next.

Othram Lab's Dr. Kristen Mittelman joins the show to discuss Othram's role in the arrest of a suspect in the murder of Rachel Morin. Help us solve a case! Donate here to give a man his name back. https://dnasolves.com/articles/dekalb-county-john-doe-2018/

True crime legend Nancy Grace joins the show to discuss her time as a prosecutor, how she got into broadcasting, and what creators can do to advocate for victims of crime.

True crime creators and citizen sleuths can bring much-needed attention to cases and even solve them. But with the constant pressure to feed the content beast, some believe the genre has lost its way. We discuss the dark side of true crime.

A lot has been made about right to privacy as it relates to DNA, but did you know right now you are sharing more than enough information with big information companies? Brett and Alice break down how Geofence Warrants work, what they provide private businesses and law enforcement, and how this technology relates to the Fourth Amendment.

Leo Schofield has been released from prison, but his search for justice is just beginning. Gilbert King and Scott Cupp join us to discuss this injustice and what's next for Leo.
