Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the ongoing murder investigations into the tragic killings of the Reiners, Australian beachgoers, and Brown University students, focusing on the role of prosecutors, the impact of media, and the dangers of anti-semitism and mental illness.  Then, the #Sisters review Jack Smith’s recent testimony on Trump’s classified documents and election interference cases, the political motivations behind it, and if there will be accountability.  They also examine Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan’s felony obstruction conviction for her actions during an attempted ICE arrest, looking at its merits, the potential for appeal, and what it means for judicial independence and immigration policy.
