Good Law | Bad Law
08/07/20 • 51 min
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Professor Sandra Guerra Thompson, of the University of Houston, and Professor Nicole Bremner Casarez, of the University of St. Thomas Houston, to discuss forensic testing, wrongful convictions, and the necessity for transparency and reliable testing in the criminal justice system, as well as one of the world’s leading independent crime labs.
In today’s episode, Aaron, Sandra, and Nicole delve into the issues of forensic science and impartiality. In their recent Houston Law Review article, “Solving Daubert’s Dilemma for the Forensic Sciences Through Blind Testing,” Nicole and Sandra describe a major breakthrough in developing a statistical foundation for forensic science disciplines: a cutting-edge blind proficiency testing program operating in six disciplines at the Houston Forensic Science Center (HFSC). Sandra is a charter member of the Board of Directors of the HFSC and now serves as the Vice Chair; Nicole is also a charter member of the Board of Directors and served as the Board Chair from July 2015 to June 2019. In today’s conversation, Sandra and Nicole explain their article and HFSC’s operations further, as the discussion focuses on blind testing, ground truths, error rates, and more. Aaron, Nicole and Sandra apply these ideas to the broader context of today as the conversation evolves to cover police operations, biases and conflicts, police reform, and the notion of accuracy in our justice system.
A Yale Law graduate, Sandra is the Newell H. Blakely Professor in Law and Director of the Criminal Justice Institute at the University of Houston Law Center, teaching courses in Criminal Law, Evidence, Hot Topics in Criminal Law and Procedure, and Criminal Evidence. She is the recipient of the University of Houston’s Distinguished Leadership in Teaching Excellence Aware in 2015, as well as the Teaching Excellence Award in 2003 and the Ethel Baker Faculty Aware in 2000. Her recent book is Cops in Lab Coats: Curbing Wrongful Convictions with Independent Forensic Laboratories (Carolina Academic Press 2015). Professor Thompson has written articles on subjects including: wrongful convictions, eyewitness identifications, forensic science, civil asset forfeiture, federal sentencing, discrimination in jury selection, prosecutorial ethics, police interrogations, and immigration crimes.
Nicole is an attorney and a Professor of Communication at the University of St. Thomas in Houston. Her areas of expertise include Media Law, Wrongful Conviction, Media Ethics, Public Relations and Civil Rights. Professor Casarez’s journalism students investigate many capital and non-capital cases, including the case of Texas death row inmate Anthony Graves that drew state and national attention; Casarez was one of the lawyers representing Graves at the time of his exoneration in 2010.

Good Law | Bad Law - Defund the Police? A Conversation w/ Alex Vitale
Good Law | Bad Law
07/31/20 • 46 min
What does it mean to “defund the police”?
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Professor Alex S. Vitale, of Brooklyn College, to discuss “defunding” the police.
Many protester signs carry this slogan. And the President is stoking fears among voters through his dark “911” video political ads. Aaron and Alex dive deep into the topic to explore what it would actually mean to end policing as we know it.
What role have police played in our communities historically? Whose safety and interests were the police protecting? Slaves or Slave-owners? Workers or Industrialists? Is the ideal we all have that police are in the business of keeping all of us safe, all of us equally safe more a myth than a reality?
Should police be in the business of “law enforcement” in schools? Rounding up the homeless and the mentally ill? Filling our prisons with low-level drug offenders? Should these functions be in the hands of counselors and social workers and other community oriented professionals, rather than armed police?
Do police reforms even work? The police department in Minneapolis that employed the officer who killed George Floyd offered training in implicit bias; had policies and procedures; had committed to greater diversity in hiring,
Are there better ways to spend the vast resources now spent on policing? Could we improve public safety better, actually reduce suffering and crime if we dedicated resources to communities in need and attacked the roots of social and economic harm that give rise to crime?
These are challenging and difficult questions. We need to have a conversation about this and understand the facts and not react reflexively. We hope this episode is a start.
Alex is a Professor of Sociology in the School of Humanities and Social Justice, as well as a Coordinator of the Policing and Social Justice Project at Brooklyn College and is a Visiting Professor at London Southbank University. He has spent the last 30 years writing about policing and consults both police departments and human rights organizations internationally. Professor Vitale’s expertise is in sociology, policing, community policing, civil disorder, demonstrations, crime, alternatives to incarceration, youth violence, gangs, drug policy, school safety, sex work, social movements and urban politics. In addition to The End of Policing, Alex is also the author of City of Disorder: How the Quality of Life Campaign Transformed New York. His academic writings on policing have appeared in Policing and Society, Police Practice and Research, Mobilization, and Contemporary Sociology. Professor Vitale is also a frequent essayist, whose writings have appeared in The New York Times, Washington Post, The Guardian, The Nation, Vice News, Fortune, and USA Today.

Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Professor Ezra Rosser, of American University Washington College of Law, to further this show’s discussion on reparations. Today, Aaron and Ezra are specifically talking about what reparations might mean for Native Americans, touching on land rights and restoration, equality, federal funding, the Indian Health Service, justice and prosecution, independence and domestic dependence, as well as the Supreme Court’s recent 5-4 decision in McGirt v. Oklahoma which affirmed Native American ownership rights in Oklahoma.

Should there be reparations for slavery?
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Dr. Thomas Craemer, of the University of Connecticut, to discuss reparations. An Associate Professor in the Department of Public Policy at UConn, Thomas’ teaching and research interests include race relations, public opinion and survey research, race related policies, diversity and inclusion, and slavery reparations. Originally from Germany, Thomas’ interest in racial attitudes was shaped by his experiences growing up in Germany as he and his country struggled to come to terms with the legacy of the Holocaust.
Thomas brings a unique perspective to today’s conversation as he shares his personal experiences, as the discussion covers the Holocaust Reparation Pension, considerations for slavery reparations, reparations for Japanese-Americans who were placed in concentration camps during WWII, white supremacy and Black Lives Matter, systematic racism, responsibility, and more.
What are the steps to our country and its people holding themselves accountable for the horrific crimes of slavery?
Inspired by his own coming-to-terms with the Holocaust, Thomas has written extensively on reparations for slavery. His groundbreaking 2015 article, Estimating Slavery Reparations (Social Science Quarterly, Vol. 96.), put real numbers to the cost of reparations, projecting a very conservative total of $14 trillion dollars in 2009, or $19 trillion in today’s dollars. His paper on “Implicit Closeness to Blacks, Support for Affirmative Action, Slavery Reparations, and Vote Intentions for Barack Obama in the 2008 Elections” received the International Society of Political Psychology’s Robert Sigel Award in 2010 and was published in 2014 in Basic and Applied Social Psychology.

Good Law | Bad Law - Another Bad Trump Immigration Ban: A Conversation w/ Ilya Somin
Good Law | Bad Law
07/10/20 • 34 min
President Trump claims that the Covid-19 pandemic justifies “the most sweeping ban on immigration” in all of United States history. Really?
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Law Professor Ilya Somin, of George Mason University, to discuss immigration, specifically the recent decision by the Trump administration to enact possibly the most sweeping immigration ban in American history.
On June 22nd, President Trump extended a near-total ban -- first announced in April as a temporary ban -- on entry into the U.S. by immigrants seeking “green cards” for permanent residency. In today’s episode, Ilya and Aaron delve into this decision, with Professor Somin claiming the President’s move is political and not rationally based on the pandemic. Ilya argues that President Trump’s executive action is a more sweeping ban on immigration that ever seen before, broader than steps taken during the Great Depression, during both World Wars, or during the and the flu pandemic of 1918-19. What were the President’s true motives? Why does this radical immigration ban actually harm rather than help the economy, in addition to hurting so many individuals and their families?
A graduate of Yale Law, Professor Somin’s areas of expertise are in Constitutional Law, Eminent Domain, Federalism, Political Participation/Political Knowledge and Property Rights and his research focuses on Constitutional Law, Property Law, Democratic Theory, Federalism, and Migration Rights. A successful author, Illya’s most recent book is Free to Move: Foot Voting, Migration, and Political Freedom. His work has also appeared in numerous scholarly journals, including the Yale Law Journal, Stanford Law Review, Northwestern University Law Review, Georgetown Law Journal, Critical Review, and others. Professor Somin has published articles in a variety of popular press outlets, including the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, the New York Times Room for Debate Website, CNN, The Atlantic, and more. Professor Somin’s writings have been cited in decisions by the United States Supreme Court, multiple state supreme courts and lower federal Courts, and the Supreme Court of Israel.

Good Law | Bad Law -Will Trump Go? A Conversation w/ Lawrence Douglas
Good Law | Bad Law
07/03/20 • 68 min
If Trump loses in November, what will he do? What could happen? Will it be a complete meltdown of our electoral and political system? Or worse?
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Lawrence Douglas, a professor of law, jurisprudence, and social thought at Amherst College and the author of a new book, Will He Go?: Trump and the Looming Election Meltdown in 2020. In today’s conversation, Aaron and Lawrence tackle what will happen if Trump loses the election but refuses to concede defeat – discussing the role of electoral college and the other ways the system we have for electing our president is antiquated and dysfunctional.
In short, the potential for dirty tricks, even election fraud and political crisis-making is great and it is real.
In advance of the 2020 election, Lawrence prepares readers of “Will He Go?” for the possibility of a less-than-peaceful transition of power. What legal and extra-legal paths could Trump pursue in mobilizing a challenge? Lawrence considers the chaos that could unfold if Trump loses a closely contested election. Aaron and Lawrence talk about Trump’s base, what past tumultuous elections have taught us about ways the election train could run right off the tracks this year, the increasing importance of mail-in ballots and “the big blue shift,” the impact of the pandemic on voting, and much more.
What could the fallout be? Can our democracy snap back from Trump?
Professor Douglas is the author of seven books, including The Right Wrong Man: John Demjanjuk and the Last Great Nazi War Crimes Trial, a New York Times “Editor’s Choice,” and has published two novels. His commentary and essays have appeared in Harper’s, The Washington Post, The New York Times, and The Lost Angeles Times; and he is a regular contributor to the Times Literary Supplement and The Guardian (US), where he is also a contributing opinion writer. A Yale Law graduate, Lawrence teaches interdisciplinary courses to a range of students, some first-term, while others are designed for juniors and seniors. Professor Douglas’ courses ask students to see the law not as a narrow system of rules, but as a complex system that serves to constitute and maintain ordered patterns of social life.
How might Trump engineer his refusal to acknowledge electoral defeat? Listen now to find out!

Do corporations lie to avoid being held liable for harms their products or practices cause? Of course they do.
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Barbara Freese, an author and an attorney, to talk about corporate denial and to discuss her new book, Industrial-Strength Denial: Eight Stories of Corporations Defending the Indefensible, from the Slave Trade to Climate Change.
Faced with claims that they are hurting people or the planet, corporations have a long history of denying evidence, blaming victims, complaining of witch hunts, attacking their critics’ motives, and otherwise rationalizing their harmful activities. In today’s conversation, Aaron and Barbara tackle corporate denial, exploring the reasons why and how this can happen, as it has throughout our history. Exploring eight case studies, from the British slave trade in the late 1700s through the climate change debate raging now, Barbara looks for reasons why corporations deny, deceive and, at times, outright lie. Factors include tribalism, human nature, morality and social responsibility, power, economic inequality, social media, and more. Barbara argues that corporate denial campaigns have led to dangerous practices that cause widespread suffering, death, and environmental destruction.
What can be done to combat corporate denial?
Barbara and Aaron explore the social responsibility of corporations, examining the impact of our fractured media society, corporate and market cultures, curated confusion and manufactured doubt, as well as corporations and democracy. With a new generation of young activists rising up to protest companies involved in causing climate change and structural causes of racial and wealth inequality, there is hope for pressing for political and legal changes that will reduce the power and influence of corporations that engage in deceit and denial.
Barbara Freese is an environmental attorney, an energy policy analyst, and a former Minnesota assistant attorney general. She is also the author of Coal: A Human History, a New York Times Notable Book. Barbara’s interest in corporate denial was sparked by cross-examining coal industry witnesses disputing the science of climate change. Listen now to find out more!

Good Law | Bad Law
08/21/20 • 54 min
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Law Professor John Culhane, of Widener University Delaware Law School, to discuss LBGTQ+ rights and the law. In today’s conversation, Aaron and John discuss what the 2020 Presidential election will bring as far as administrative changes, and contemplate what the aftereffects may be regarding the LGBTQ+ community.
In this episode, Aaron and John explore the challenge of reconciling the Constitutional rights of religious freedoms and personal liberties, touching on the issues of executive action and the administrative state, the magnitude of an administration’s position and the affects of these on the Supreme Court, as well as the complexities in easing tension between religion and the right to non-discrimination. John and Aaron talk about the Colorado Masterpiece Bake Shop case (Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission), the importance of our vote, Title VII, immigration, the landmark Obergefell decision (Obergefell v. Hodges), the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, and more. Looking ahead, Aaron and John ruminate on the anticipated upcoming issues, as well as the cases percolating through the system now, such as a Philadelphia foster care case and a surrogacy matter involving a same-sex couple. What should we expect to see after November? And, what will be the fallout?
Professor Culhane is a Professor of Law and the H. Albert Young Fellow in Constitutional Law and Co-Director of the Family Health Law & Policy Institute at Widener University Delaware Law School, as well as a contributing writer for Slate Magazine. Teaching courses in Family Law, Torts, Public Health Law, and others, John is inspired by his student’s desire to expand their knowledge and deepen their comprehension of what he refers to as “often dense and even ‘messy’ legal doctrine and policy.”
Professor Culhane is a co-author of “Same-Sex Legal Kit for Dummies,” editor and a contributor to “Reconsidering Law and Policy Debates: A Public Health Perspective,” and the author of some three dozen law review articles on a wide range of topics, including: the rights of LGBT couples; compensation of victims of mass disasters; the public health implications of such disparate issues as sports-related concussions, bullying, same-sex marriages, and vaccine compensation policy; in addition to a wide range of tort law issues (including informed consent, product liability, and educational malpractice.) He has thrice won the Outstanding Faculty award at Widener, and has twice received the Douglas E. Ray Scholarship Award. Professor Culhane is co-chair of Widener’s LGBT Task Force and a member of the Board of Directors of Women’s Way. He is also a member of the Advisory Council of Equality Delaware.
