217: Securing Life over Death in the Aurora Theater Shooting Case w/Doug Wilson

Today, Hunter sat down once again with the former Chief Public Defender of Colorado, Doug Wilson. This time, Doug and Hunter discuss the Aurora Theater Shooting case. Just like the episode about the Parkland shooting, today's episode is designed to help people understand how such a heinous crime could end in a life over death sentence. In examining these cases, hopefully people can understand the power of mitigating evidence and a well- funded criminal defense team can have on a criminal case.   Guests: Doug Wilson, Former Chief Public Defender of the State of Colorado   Resources: THE "EVIL" DEFENDANT AND THE "HOLDOUT" JUROR: UNPACKING THE MYTHS OF THE AURORA THEATER SHOOTING CASE AS WE PONDER THE FUTURE OF CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN COLORADO https://www.coloradodefenders.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Nelson-FINAL-1.pdf Aurora theater shooting trial: DA George Brauchler scolded over tweet https://sentinelcolorado.com/metro/theater-shooting-trial-da-brauchler-scolded-tweet/ A Record 9,000 People Were Called For Jury Duty In The Aurora Theater Shooting Trial https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/a-record-9000-people-were-called-for-jury-duty-in-the-aurora-theater-shooting-trial/     Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 [email protected]  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN
