Ep. 279: The Legal News That Captivated Us In 2022

Another year, another deluge of legal news, and as usual, the Pro Say gang has you covered. This week’s show is a look back at a whirlwind of judicial activity, headlined by a historic Supreme Court term that saw 50 years of abortion rights precedent wiped away, gun rights expanded and stirred a feverish debate over the institution of the court itself. We’ll also walk through a handful of highly publicized trials that had both excerpts and non-experts buzzing, including defamation cases against Alex Jones and Johnny Depp, and the continuing lengthy trudge of the Theranos fraud saga. Finally, no year-end legal news recap would be complete without a dive into the many continuing legal entanglements of former President Donald Trump, including a federal raid on his private residence and not one but two tax and corruption actions against his business empire.
