In this episode of The Lies We Tell, we confront the stark disparities in America's justice system. While individuals like Mahendra Patel face unjust incarceration, others with significant convictions receive presidential pardons. We will look into recent clemency decisions, highlighting systemic inequalities and urging listeners to recognize and challenge these injustices.
