society, culture, true crime · EN

Crime and the Courtroom is a unique and stimulating examination of the American criminal justice system for the authorities and supporting professionals who make criminal justice possible. We turn an observant eye toward the system's evolving capacity to strike the delicate balance between preserving the quality of life of our citizens and protecting the rights of the accused. Hosted by one of the most respected and influential forensic experts in the United States, John M. Collins and his guests share real-world experiences and insights about the evidence, techniques, and decision-making used in the investigation, adjudication, and prevention of crime. In each episode, we look for opportunities to dive deep into the lessons of current and past cases to ensure that our organizational, legal, and public priorities are smart and well-intentioned. In this effort, we challenge our public safety leaders and experts to think creatively and proactively about how crime can be prevented before
