Show Notes

This episode continues the conversation between hosts Ronnie Villeda and Josue Pineda about Kalief Browder’s case, the long-term solitary confinement that he endured at Rikers Island as a 16-year-old, and the all too common harm inflicted on Kalief by the youth justice system that eventually led him to take his own life. Tragically, the profound harm inflicted on Kalief by the youth justice system is all too common. They also look at alternatives, including bail reform. As Swey says, one case like Kalief’s is one too many.
