Appeals and Coffee
from The Shakedown Hosted by The Shakedown
Rainforest asks the question, "What does it REALLY mean to make an appeal?" We discuss what that means inside and outside of prison and what it means for those with and without money. We also get into the idea of culpability and how that ties into harsher sentencing for youth offenders. We finish the episode by asking Malone, "What does Starbucks taste like after 30 years in prison?"
