Episode 35 - Humza Hussain

In this powerful and deeply human conversation Kelly speaks with criminal defence lawyer Humza Hussain who fights for those overlooked by the justice system. From courtroom stories to the human impact of wrongful convictions, Humza shows us what it really takes to stand up for justice and the lives behind every case. Humza shares how his early work with Innocence Canada and on death row in North Carolina shaped his approach to criminal defence, why plea deals can quietly punish the innocent, and how empathy so often gets lost in an overburdened justice system. They talk about wrongful convictions, plea bargains, and what happens when people are punished for maintaining their innocence making this a conversation about law, humanity, and what justice is supposed to look like when real lives are on the line.Listen now wherever you get your podcasts.https://pod.link/1826106591#WrongfullyYours #WrongfulConvictions #CriminalJustice #InnocenceCanada #DefenseLaw #PleaBargains #JusticeReform #HumanityInJustice
