In this episode of The Ethicist's Corner we talk with Dr. Ben Jones, Assistant Director of the Rock Ethics Institute at Penn State University about the ethics and urgency of police reform. Dr. Jones has extensive experience working on police reform and criminal justice policy. From 2009 to 2012, he served as the Executive Director of the Connecticut Network to Abolish the Death Penalty, a campaign that successfully repealed Connecticut’s death penalty. Following this campaign, he worked as a campaign strategist for Equal Justice USA, a national organization that works to transform the justice system at the intersection of criminal justice, public health, and racial justice.
