Reasonably Suspicious February 2019

from Reasonably Suspicious · host Just Liberty

The deadly, botched Houston drug raid has turned a spotlight on serious problems with militarized, no-knock raids aimed at small-time drug cases. Reasonably Suspicious explores the problem. Interview with Corrections Chairman James White looks at the pressure on local property tax payers created by an inefficient and bloated prison and jail system, and reforms that he believes can turn Texas around. Half a million people arrested and jailed on nonpayment of Class C misdemeanor fines -- mostly traffic ticket debt. What in the world do we think we're doing? Discussion with data analyst Chris Harris.
