Not as a matter of faith, but as a question of evidence. This episode of Strange Planet takes listeners into a courtroom-style investigation of Christianity's most consequential claim—the birth of Christ. Trial attorney Daniel P. Buttafuoco examines the Bible not as devotional literature, but as documentary evidence, weighing eyewitness testimony, manuscript reliability, and forensic archaeology. From the Dead Sea Scrolls to Messianic prophecy written centuries before Bethlehem, this is a Christmas episode without sentimentality—rooted in ancient texts, hard proof, and a single, unsettling question: if this were any other case, would the evidence really be dismissed? GUEST: Daniel P. Buttafuoco is a veteran trial attorney who brings the discipline of the courtroom to the biggest questions of faith. Known for his rigorous, evidence-based approach, he treats Christianity as a legal case—argued with rules of evidence, standards of proof, and historical documentation. In his book Unapologetic: Clear Answers to Tough Bible Questions, Buttafuoco examines Scripture as an ancient legal record, drawing on eyewitness testimony, textual consistency, and forensic discoveries like the Dead Sea Scrolls. He doesn't ask audiences to believe—he asks them to examine the evidence and reach a verdict.

In this episode, Steve Palmer and Troy Henricksen talk about a hot legal issue that's making big headlines: the trial of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan.This isn't your everyday courtroom drama—judge Dugan's actions set off a wave of political controversy and questions about judicial authority, federal versus state power, and the real-life consequences of policies clashing in America's courthouses.Steve Palmer and Troy Henricksen break down the facts like a law school case study, dissecting the judge's decision to confront federal immigration agents and help an undocumented defendant avoid ICE agents in the courthouse.The conversation covers everything from the tangled web of federal and state jurisdictions, the constitutional Supremacy Clause, and judicial immunity, to the practical strategies used in jury selection—like seeking jurors who might lean a certain way politically.Throughout the episode, you'll hear spirited debate, memorable courthouse anecdotes, and sharp legal analysis as Steve Palmer and Troy Henricksen put themselves in the shoes of both the prosecution and the defense. They predict outcomes, debate gray areas in the law, and even place a friendly wager on how this real-world legal drama will unfold.Moments00:00 "Judge Defies ICE in Courtroom"03:29 "Out the Back Door"09:13 "Supremacy Clause and Federal Law"12:45 "Mens Rea: Intent Explained"15:44 "Politics and Fair Trial Debate"17:11 Jury Nullification and Political Context20:30 "Verdict Predictions and Recap"Mentioned in this episode:Circle 270 Media Podcast ConsultantsCircle 270 Media® is a podcast consulting firm based in Columbus, Ohio, specializing in helping businesses develop, launch, and optimize podcasts as part of their marketing strategy.

Hey, Survivor! In this episode of The Vibrant Survivor Podcast, I'm sharing what it was like to attend two emotionally intense court hearings in one week…on the same day—a murder sentencing, and a pre-trial evidentiary hearing—and how supporting victims can be retraumatizing for survivors. During the sentencing hearing, as family members, friends, and community members read victim impact statements, my body responded before my mind could. I experienced hyperventilation, emotional flooding, and nervous system overwhelm—a powerful reminder that trauma lives in the body, not just the mind. With holidays approaching—and this season already carrying heavy anniversary trauma—I made the intentional decision to step back from court proceedings until after the new year. Not because I don't care. Not because justice doesn't matter. But because healing requires regulation, rest, and boundaries. The holidays can intensify grief, loss, and trauma responses—especially for those navigating court systems, injustice, or unresolved pain. If you, or someone you know, need permission to pause, breathe, and choose peace this season, this episode is for you. Know who you're dealing with. Know who you are.
I'm standing outside a federal courthouse, talking to you as the many legal threads around Donald Trump tighten and twist in real time.Over just the past few days, one of the big storylines has shifted from criminal exposure to raw presidential power. In Washington, the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit handed President Donald Trump a major win by upholding his removal of National Labor Relations Board member Gwynne Wilcox and Merit Systems Protection Board member Cathy Harris without cause. According to analysis from Ogletree Deakins, the court went further than just blessing those firings: it held that the statutory “for cause” protections for top officials at powerful independent agencies are unconstitutional when those officials wield substantial executive power. In plain English, the D.C. Circuit said President Donald Trump can sweep out key regulators at will, reshaping agencies that for decades had a measure of insulation from the Oval Office.At almost the same time, the Supreme Court has been functioning as an emergency referee over a growing list of Trump fights. SCOTUSblog reports that on its interim or “shadow” docket the justices have been fielding high‑stakes disputes over President Donald Trump's use of the National Guard in Illinois, his clashes with immigration judges, and efforts by groups like Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington to get internal administration documents through the Freedom of Information Act. The Brennan Center for Justice has been tracking these emergency cases and notes that, since early 2025, the Supreme Court has repeatedly sided with the Trump administration on issues like immigration crackdowns, reductions in the civil service, and the removal of members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Labor Relations Board.All of this sits on top of the longer‑running legal sagas that you as listeners have been following for years: the civil verdicts in New York, the federal and state criminal indictments, and the defamation and assault findings in the E. Jean Carroll cases. Public radio outlets like WABE have been keeping a running tally of where those stand since Donald Trump's return to the White House, tracking appeals of jury verdicts, ongoing sentencing fights for his former aides, and the way new Justice Department decisions under his own administration intersect with prosecutions that began before he reclaimed power.So when we talk about “the Trump trials” right now, we are not just talking about Donald Trump as a criminal defendant. We are talking about Donald Trump as president, testing and expanding the boundaries of executive authority in courtroom after courtroom, from the D.C. Circuit to the Supreme Court, while older cases about his past business dealings and political conduct grind through appeals.For you listening, the takeaway this week is simple: judges are increasingly being asked whether Donald Trump is merely subject to the law, or also able to rewrite the balance of power inside the law itself. Those answers are coming fast, and they are reshaping the presidency in ways that will outlast any single trial.Thanks for tuning in, and come back next week for more.

Courtrooms, campus corridors, mountain slopes, and border tarmacs: we connect them through three rulings that change how you navigate rights, rules, and risk. We start with a Vancouver Island University protest case where banners, ladders, and megaphones escalated into disruptions of exams. The student fought a two‑year suspension, arguing misidentification, unfair process, and—most ambitiously—freedom of expression under the Charter. We walk through why the court said no, revisiting Dolphin Delivery and the baseline that the Charter restrains government, not institutions acting independently. In BC, universities aren't automatically treated as government actors, so Charter arguments usually fail unless legislation compels the action. The practical takeaway is clear: campus discipline lives under university policy and administrative law, not constitutional guarantees.Then we climb into the backcountry with a Wildlife Act prosecution that turned on what “full curl thinhorn ram” actually means. Is it age, horn length, or both? At trial, experts wrangled over true versus false annuli, and the hunter was convicted. On appeal, the court read the regulation's “or” as a real alternative: either eight years as proven by annuli or a horn tip that extends beyond the nose bridge plane when viewed squarely from the side. That interpretation aligns with field reality, where counting ridges through binoculars is guesswork. For hunters, this sets a safer path: document the side view and horn tip position to meet the length criterion without winning a lab fight over annuli.We land with a hard deadline at the border. A sniffer dog allegedly damaged a multi‑million‑dollar helicopter during a customs search. The owner complained immediately and filed a claim, but the later lawsuit missed a little‑known limit: the Customs Act requires claims within three months. The court enforced the clock and dismissed the case, even while acknowledging the fairness concerns. If border searches damage your property, act fast—document everything, get estimates, and file in the correct court before the window slams shut.Want practical law without the jargon? Press play for a grounded guide to: when free expression stops at the campus gate, how one word in a regulation can flip a conviction, and why a hidden limitation period can decide your whole case. If this helped you spot risks early, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review telling us which case hit home.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

Teatime with Miss LizDecember 16th, 3 PM ESTGuest: Russell G. Little — “Murder for Me, Courtroom Truths & Stories of the Human Heart” Russell G. Little Truth, Fiction & the Stories Born From a Lifetime in the Courtroom. Where law meets literature and real lives spark unforgettable fiction. Miss Liz doesn't serve a beverage; she serves real-life changemakers.On December 16th, she serves Russell G. Little, Houston-based writer, seasoned divorce attorney, and the author of Murder for Me, a gripping fictionalized blend drawn from the unforgettable characters, cases, and human complexities he witnessed in his 40-year legal career. Born in Amarillo, Texas, where the land is flat, the wind never stops, and the federal government builds bombs, Russell grew up surrounded by grit and resilience. After law school, he married a Houston girl and moved to Houston, where he practiced law for four decades, raised three children, and remained married to his wife, Melinda, for 32 years, a fact that surprises many, given his specialty in divorce law. His work in Family Law and Criminal Law brought him face-to-face with situations both wild and unbelievable, the kind that live quietly in the soul but loudly on the page. Russell has tried over one hundred jury trials, handled hundreds more before a judge, and witnessed the rawest layers of human truth. His upcoming novel, Murder by Storm (October release), continues the battle of pursuit and deception in a hurricane-shaken Houston, a story every reader will want to experience from the safety of their chair. Russell also writes children's books inspired by his granddaughter Vivi, blending adventure with messages of animal care and conservation. Miss Liz will pour a cup of courtroom grit, Texas storytelling, and literary honesty with Russell G. Little, a practicing attorney of four decades and the author of Murder for Me, a crime novel born from real experiences, unforgettable characters, and the emotional residue of hundreds of cases. Born in Amarillo and settled in Houston, Russell has lived a life shaped by wide-open landscapes, courtroom battles, human complexity, and the kind of stories you carry long after the verdict. With more than one hundred jury trials behind him, he has seen the best and worst of people,e and he channels that truth into fiction with depth, empathy, and a sharp eye for detail. Inspired by literary giants like Proust, Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and Hemingway, Russell writes with classic influence, modern grit, and a soul shaped by decades inside the legal arena. His upcoming novel, Murder by Storm, dives into pursuit, deception, and survival as Houston is battered by a hurricane. Outside of crime fiction, his heart shows in the children's books he co-wrote with his wife, stories inspired by his granddaughter Vivi and focused on protecting Africa's remarkable wildlife. Today, we explore law, humanity, writing, truth, tension, family, and the stories that stay with us forever. What an engaging and richly layered Teatime with Russell G. Little, a conversation filled with humanity, humour, honesty, and hard-earned wisdom. Russell will remind us that behind every case is a person, behind every verdict is a story, and behind every courtroom door are truths that can shape a writer forever. His seamless weaving of legal experience into fiction, his love for classic literature, and his heartfelt family stories made today's Teatime unforgettable. Miss Liz will thank Russell for sharing your world, your work, and your wit. And thank you to everyone who joined live or on replay. Your support continues the ripple of storytelling, truth, and transformation. Author of Murder for Me and the upcoming Murder by Storm, he blends courtroom insight with storytelling. He also co-writes children's books inspired by his granddaughter, Vivi. #TeatimeWithMissLiz#RussellGLittle#CrimeFiction#TexasAuthors#CourtroomStories
Paul once told us that when he thinks of William Shatner the first of his acting roles that comes to mind was that of Captain Harrison Byers from Stanley Kramer's Judgment at Nuremberg from 1961, long before Shatner stepped onboard the Starship that would change his life.

Mark Puente didn't go to j-school — he drove trucks for 15 years before stepping into a newsroom. But when a judge tried to block him from observing a public court hearing, Puente didn't flinch. Armed with experience, instinct, and a phone call to his editor, he stood his ground — ready to risk contempt rather than walk away. What followed wasn't just a clash over access, but a moment that reveals why blue-collar grit still matters in American journalism.

The prosecution says Luigi Mangione ambushed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a Manhattan sidewalk, fled the city, and was caught days later in a McDonald's with a backpack containing a gun and a notebook outlining an anti-health-care-industry ideology. The defense says that backpack shouldn't even exist in this case. They claim officers searched it illegally, questioned Mangione without Miranda, and collected statements while he was isolated in a Pennsylvania prison under constant watch. If a judge agrees, prosecutors could lose the alleged murder weapon, the writings on motive, and the statements tying it all together. This isn't just a murder case anymore. It's a fight over the Constitution — what police can do, what they can't, and whether a death-penalty prosecution can proceed if the evidence at the center of it was obtained the wrong way. Tonight, we break down the shooting, the arrest, the surveillance, the suppression hearing, the federal death-penalty push, and the extraordinary fallout if the judge throws out the evidence prosecutors are depending on. #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #LegalFight #SearchAndSeizure #DeathPenalty #CourtHearing #NYC #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

By January 2007, all five suspects were in custody. Prosecutors had charged them with 46 counts including murder, rape, kidnapping, and robbery. Between 2008-2010, four separate trials resulted in convictions. It seemed like justice had finally been served and the families could breathe. Then a scandal involving the judge, who presided over the trials, would rock their worlds. Because of his demons, the families would have to go through it all over again.Support ResourcesFor Survivors of Violence:https://www.rainn.org/ - RAINN (1-800-656-4673)https://www.thehotline.org/ - National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233)https://www.crisistextline.org/ - Crisis Text Line (Text HOME to 741741)https://988lifeline.org/ - 988 Suicide & Crisis LifelineFor Families of Murder Victims:https://www.pomc.org/ - Parents of Murdered Childrenhttps://victimsofcrime.org/ - National Center for Victims of Crimehttps://www.ncvc.org/ - National Crime Victim Law InstituteSources:https://www.newspapers.com/ (Historical archive - subscription required)https://www.knoxnews.com/ (Search "Christian Newsom" for extensive archive)https://abcnews.go.com/ (Search "Channon Christian")https://www.cnn.com/ (Coverage of trials and scandal)https://www.foxnews.com/ (Michelle Malkin coverage 2007)https://www.wbir.com/ (WBIR-TV extensive trial coverage)https://www.wate.com/ (WATE 6 On Your Side)https://www.wvlt.tv/ (WVLT Local 8 News)https://www.tncourts.gov/ (Tennessee State Courts)https://www.tsc.state.tn.us/ (Tennessee Supreme Court opinions)https://www.knoxcounty.org/criminal/ (Knox County Criminal Court)https://law.justia.com/cases/tennessee/ (Tennessee case law database)https://scholar.google.com/ (Search: "State v.

Day four of the Brian Walshe murder trial delivered a gripping blend of legal complexity, emotional testimony, and strategic maneuvering as the prosecution continues its pursuit of a first-degree murder conviction in the disappearance and alleged killing of Ana Walshe. With Massachusetts law limiting the jury to an all-or-nothing decision unless lesser charges are formally requested, the courtroom has become a focal point of true crime and breaking news coverage. Analysts on the panel noted that the defense appears to be embracing this structure intentionally, betting that the high burden of proof for first-degree murder may open the door to reasonable doubt. The prosecution, however, is leaning heavily on chilling circumstantial evidence: disturbing Google searches attributed to Brian Walshe, blood-stained items recovered from the home, and tools consistent with dismemberment. As the jury absorbs these details, the atmosphere has grown intensely somber, with several members taking careful notes during forensic testimony. The trial's emotional stakes rose even further with discussion of incoming evidence surrounding Ana Walshe's extramarital relationship, including text messages exchanged on New Year's Eve. Though legally irrelevant to the murder charge, experts warn such revelations can influence jurors on a deeply personal level. Adding to the tension, the judge has asked both sides to submit briefs on whether the jury should be instructed about Brian Walshe's prior pleas related to moving Ana's body and misleading investigators, a decision that could shape how jurors interpret the timeline and intent. As each new detail surfaces, the case grows more complex, more haunting, and more emotionally charged. With the jury restricted to a single charge, the outcome may ultimately hinge on whether even one juror finds reasonable doubt in this high-stakes, high-profile true crime trial that continues to captivate national attention. #brianwalshe #anawalshe #truecrime #breakingnews #murdertrial #justice #courtcase #jurytrial #investigation #crimeupdates Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

There has been a lot happening around Donald Trump's time in court, so let's jump straight into the action from the listener's point of view, with an eye on the last several days and the broader arc those days fit into.Picture walking into a courthouse where a former president, now again President Donald Trump, is not just a political figure but a criminal and civil defendant in multiple jurisdictions. In New York, listeners have watched Trump fight civil claims over the way his business valued properties and represented its finances, a saga that has turned routine numbers on balance sheets into front-page drama. Judges there have heard testimony about Trump Organization practices, property valuations, and internal emails, all while Trump alternates between sitting stone-faced in court and stepping outside to attack prosecutors and judges in front of cameras. In those hallways, reporters cluster around, noting every word as Trump calls the cases witch hunts and insists that the real verdict will come from voters, not juries.At the same time, federal criminal cases have loomed in the background, especially those tied to efforts to overturn the 2020 election and Trump's conduct around January 6 at the United States Capitol. Listeners have heard references to sprawling indictments that describe fake electors, pressure campaigns on state officials, and efforts to use the machinery of government to cling to power. In those cases, the legal fight in recent days has often been less about witnesses on the stand and more about high‑stakes motions: Trump's lawyers arguing that a president should enjoy broad immunity for acts in office, and prosecutors countering that no one, not even a president, is above the law. Judges have been pressed to decide whether Trump's status as a current president changes how quickly these trials should move or how far immunity should stretch over his past conduct.Layered on top of that are cases over classified documents found at Mar‑a‑Lago, where federal prosecutors have claimed Trump mishandled national security secrets and obstructed efforts to retrieve them. In hearings linked to that prosecution, lawyers have clashed over how sensitive evidence is handled, whether the government is overreaching, and whether the case can realistically be brought to trial while Secret Service details, political schedules, and national security clearances all hover over every practical decision. Listeners are reminded again and again that the same man at the defense table is commanding federal agencies from the Oval Office.Recent days have also kept attention on the political and legal collision course these trials represent. Court calendars have brushed up against campaign rallies and official events, raising the question of whether judges should delay proceedings to avoid interfering with a sitting president's duties, or whether delay would itself be a kind of special treatment no other defendant would receive. Prosecutors have argued that justice delayed is justice denied, while Trump's team has claimed that rushing to trial would amount to election interference by other means. Outside the courthouses, supporters shout that the system is rigged, while critics insist that accountability is finally catching up with decades of behavior.All of this has turned the courts into a kind of second campaign trail, one paved with subpoenas instead of yard signs. Listeners have watched as familiar names—prosecutors, former aides, state attorneys general, and federal judges—become recurring characters in an unfolding story about power, responsibility, and consequence. Every filing, every ruling, and every brief hearing becomes another data point in the question that hangs over all of this: can the United States legal system put a sitting president to the test in the same way it would any other citizen.Thanks for tuning in and staying with this unfolding story of Donald Trump's trials in America's courts.

The prosecution says Luigi Mangione ambushed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a Manhattan sidewalk, fled the city, and was caught days later in a McDonald's with a backpack containing a gun and a notebook outlining an anti-health-care-industry ideology. The defense says that backpack shouldn't even exist in this case. They claim officers searched it illegally, questioned Mangione without Miranda, and collected statements while he was isolated in a Pennsylvania prison under constant watch. If a judge agrees, prosecutors could lose the alleged murder weapon, the writings on motive, and the statements tying it all together. This isn't just a murder case anymore. It's a fight over the Constitution — what police can do, what they can't, and whether a death-penalty prosecution can proceed if the evidence at the center of it was obtained the wrong way. Tonight, we break down the shooting, the arrest, the surveillance, the suppression hearing, the federal death-penalty push, and the extraordinary fallout if the judge throws out the evidence prosecutors are depending on. #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #LegalFight #SearchAndSeizure #DeathPenalty #CourtHearing #NYC #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Some lawyers wait for the perfect case. Nick Rowley never did. With more than $2 billion in verdicts and settlements, he walks through what it really takes to show up in the courtroom over and over.

You'll learn: Why Rowley says to try any case anywhere; and how taking hard, small cases built the foundation of his trial prep mindset What younger lawyers should know about courtroom access, and why real trial opportunities are more available than they think How Rowley builds a purpose-driven trial team focused on justice, quality advocacy, and a shared “why” behind every verdict If you like what you hear, hit subscribe.
