387 | The Junk "Science" Cops Use to Stop, Frisk, and Search People w/Amanda Savage

Today, Hunter was joined by Professor Amanda Savage to discuss her latest law review article "The Pseudoscience of Gun Hunting".  In the article, Amanda explains the cop created "Characteristics of an Armed Person" training that cops undergo to identify who may or may not have a weapon. As with many cop created "sciences," CAP is the perfect tool for police to use if they want to stop, search, and frisk someone for any reason or no reason at all.   Guest: Amanda Savage, Professor of Law, Denver University School of Law   Resources: Read Amanda's Work https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5148151 Amanda's Faculty Page https://www.law.du.edu/about/people/amanda-savage   Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 [email protected]  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patreon www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?
