The Brian Walshe murder trial has reached its final stage. A jury of six men and six women is now deliberating whether the Massachusetts father of three is guilty of murdering and dismembering his wife Ana Walshe on New Year's Day 2023. Closing arguments revealed two starkly different narratives.  Prosecutor Anne Yas pointed directly at Walshe and declared Ana is dead because he murdered her, describing him as cool and calculated as he bought hacksaws and cleaning supplies with cash while searching online for how to dispose of a body. The defense countered that Walshe found his wife dead in bed from sudden unexplained causes and panicked, making terrible decisions but never planning to harm the woman he loved.  The jury has three options on their verdict slip: not guilty, first-degree murder which carries life without parole, or second-degree murder which would make Walshe eligible for parole after 15 to 25 years. During deliberations the jury asked to see exhibit 97, a photograph of Ana lying on a rug in her living room. That same rug was later found cut into pieces in a dumpster, soaked in her blood, with a fragment of her necklace embedded in the fibers.  Ana Walshe's body has never been recovered. Brian Walshe has already pleaded guilty to disposing of her remains and misleading police, though the jury was not told about those admissions. Whatever verdict comes back, it won't answer the question haunting this case: what actually happened in that Cohasset home between the champagne toast at midnight and the first Google search at 4:52 a.m. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #JuryDeliberation #CohassetMurder #ClosingArguments #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForAna Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jonathan Drake begins a new series with the first episode of his deep dive into Lysander Spooner's An Essay on the Trial by Jury, framing it as the next critical pillar in understanding natural law after concluding No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority. He walks through Spooner's argument that true liberty depends on juries judging not just facts, but the justice of laws themselves, placing ultimate authority in the hands of the people rather than the state. Jonathan traces the ancient roots of trial by jury through English common law, the Magna Carta, and the American founding, contrasting “trial by country” with modern courtrooms that function as trials by government. Using the Tina Peters case as a modern example, he explains how judicial control of evidence and jury instruction has hollowed out the system while preserving its appearance. This episode lays the philosophical groundwork for why jury nullification, unanimity, and random selection are essential safeguards against despotism, and why reclaiming this knowledge may be one of the last peaceful checks on unchecked power.

This Day in Legal History: Bill of Rights RatifiedOn December 15, 1791, the Bill of Rights was officially ratified, marking a foundational moment in American legal history. With Virginia becoming the crucial eleventh state to approve the measure, the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution achieved the three-fourths majority required for adoption. These amendments were crafted in response to fears that the newly formed federal government might trample on individual freedoms, a concern strongly voiced by the Anti-Federalists during the Constitution's ratification debates. Drafted primarily by James Madison, the Bill of Rights was intended to secure essential civil liberties and limit government power.The amendments enshrine core protections such as freedom of speech, religion, and the press, the right to bear arms, and safeguards against unreasonable searches and seizures. They also provide important rights to those accused of crimes, including the right to a fair trial, protection against self-incrimination, and freedom from cruel and unusual punishment. At the time, these provisions applied only to the federal government, but their scope was later expanded through the Incorporation Doctrine using the Fourteenth Amendment.The ratification of the Bill of Rights represented a political compromise but ultimately became a defining element of American constitutional identity. Over the centuries, courts have invoked these amendments in countless rulings, from free speech cases to gun rights and due process protections. The Bill of Rights not only shapes modern legal debates but also remains a symbol of the nation's enduring commitment to individual liberty and the rule of law. Its ratification on this day in 1791 continues to influence how justice is understood and delivered in the United States.Judge Hannah Dugan of the Milwaukee County Circuit Court is on trial for allegedly obstructing an immigration arrest in her courtroom, a case seen as a test of Donald Trump's aggressive immigration enforcement policies. Federal prosecutors accuse Dugan of helping a Mexican migrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, evade arrest by redirecting ICE agents and escorting the defendant through a non-public exit after his hearing. Dugan, who has been suspended from the bench, has pleaded not guilty to charges of concealing a person from arrest and obstructing federal proceedings.Prosecutors claim she acted corruptly and misled law enforcement, allegedly showing anger when she learned of ICE's presence and insisting a judicial warrant was needed. Dugan's defense argues she acted in good faith, following courthouse policy designed to handle ICE encounters after previous controversial arrests. The trial highlights growing legal and political tensions around courthouse arrests, which critics say intimidate immigrants and undermine trust in the legal system. The outcome could influence how far judges and local officials can go in pushing back against federal immigration actions.Wisconsin judge faces trial for stopping courtroom arrest of migrant in Trump crackdown | ReutersCalifornia filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for cutting over $33 million in federal grants intended for commercial vehicle safety programs. The U.S. Department of Transportation, led by Secretary Sean Duffy, justified the funding termination by claiming California failed to properly enforce English proficiency requirements for truck drivers. California argues its standards align with federal rules and called the decision unlawful and harmful to public safety and the economy.The lawsuit comes amid broader efforts by the Trump administration to crack down on non-English-speaking and non-U.S. citizen truck drivers. This includes halting commercial driver visas and threatening similar funding cuts in states like New York and Minnesota. The administration has also targeted Democrat-led states for other transportation-related penalties. In California's case, the withheld funds were designated for safety inspections, audits, traffic enforcement, and education programs.California contends that its licensed drivers are involved in significantly fewer fatal crashes than the national average, challenging the administration's justification. The legal dispute reflects escalating tensions between federal agencies and Democratic states over immigration and transportation enforcement.California sues Trump administration over terminated transportation grants | ReutersA federal judge ruled that evidence seized from Daniel Richman, a former attorney for ex-FBI Director James Comey, was wrongfully retained by prosecutors, presenting a hurdle for any new charges against Comey. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ordered the Department of Justice to return the files but allowed a sealed copy to remain with the court should prosecutors later obtain a valid warrant. Richman had filed a lawsuit claiming the DOJ had improperly held onto materials seized during an investigation that ended in 2021 without charges.While the judge found the DOJ's actions amounted to an unreasonable seizure, she declined to prevent the department from pursuing future leads based on the information already reviewed. The seized files had been used earlier this year to support an indictment against Comey, accusing him of making false statements and obstructing Congress over his 2020 testimony.That indictment, along with one against New York Attorney General Letitia James, was dismissed last month after it was found the prosecutor involved had been unlawfully appointed. The judge's ruling now complicates the DOJ's ability to revive its case against Comey, a frequent critic of Donald Trump and a central figure in past investigations into Trump's conduct.Judge says Comey evidence was wrongfully retained, creating hurdle for new charges | ReutersA California jury has ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $40 million to two women who claimed its talc-based baby powder caused their ovarian cancer. The jury awarded $18 million to Monica Kent and $22 million to Deborah Schultz and her husband, finding the company failed to warn consumers despite allegedly knowing of the product's risks for decades. Both women testified that they used the powder for over 40 years and have undergone extensive cancer treatments since their diagnoses in 2014 and 2018.J&J denies the product causes cancer and plans to appeal the verdict, calling it an “aberrant” outcome. The company points out that no major U.S. health agency has definitively linked talc to ovarian cancer and argues that plaintiffs' claims rely solely on legal arguments rather than scientific consensus.This is the first talc trial to move forward since J&J's latest bankruptcy attempt, aimed at resolving over 67,000 similar lawsuits, was rejected by the courts. The company previously stopped selling talc-based baby powder in the U.S. in 2020. While it has faced some large verdicts—including a $4.69 billion award in a past case—it has also won dismissals and reductions on appeal. In addition to ovarian cancer claims, J&J is also facing suits linking its talc products to mesothelioma, with some recent verdicts exceeding $900 million.Jury orders Johnson & Johnson to pay $40 million to two women in latest talc trial | Reuters This is a public episode.

The Brian Walshe murder trial took a stunning turn Thursday morning when the defense rested without calling a single witness. Not Brian Walshe. Not their forensic experts. Not the medical professional who was supposed to explain how a healthy 39-year-old woman just drops dead in bed. Nothing. This comes just 24 hours after Walshe's attorneys told the judge he would take the stand. Instead, when asked directly by Judge Diane Freniere, Walshe confirmed: "I will not testify." After eight days of prosecution testimony and 50 witnesses, the defense offered zero counter-evidence to support the "sudden unexplained death" theory they promised in opening statements.  This morning, both sides deliver 45-minute closing arguments, then deliberations begin. The prosecution built their case on Brian Walshe's Google searches starting at 4:52 a.m. on January 1st, 2023 — searches for how to dispose of a body, how to dismember, hacksaw recommendations, and how to clean DNA from a knife. The jury saw surveillance footage of Walshe buying hatchets, hacksaws, Tyvek suits, and cleaning supplies while wearing a surgical mask and blue gloves, paying in cash. They heard that Ana's DNA was found on the hacksaw blade with statistical certainty in the nonillions. They learned about the $2.7 million life insurance policy naming Brian as sole beneficiary, and the affair with D.C. real estate broker William Fastow — whose name Brian searched on Christmas Day 2022. Brian Walshe has already pleaded guilty to dismembering Ana's body and misleading police. He faces life in prison without parole if convicted of first-degree murder.

In the true crime courtroom spotlight, the Brian Walshe murder trial entered one of its most consequential phases as the defense began presenting its case. Prosecutors allege Walshe murdered and dismembered his wife, Ana Walshe, after she vanished under suspicious circumstances. The defense has signaled that Brian Walshe himself may testify, a move that could dramatically alter the trajectory of the trial. Jurors have already heard the defense claim that Walshe awoke to find his wife dead beside him, a narrative that now faces intense scrutiny given the evidence of dismemberment and concealment that followed. Legal analysts note that while sudden death is medically possible, the actions taken afterward present a steep challenge for the defense to explain credibly. With no lesser charges currently on the table, the jury's decision could hinge entirely on whether this account withstands cross-examination. Together, these unfolding cases reflect the volatile intersection of power, accountability, and justice, as investigators, jurors, and the public await answers that could permanently reshape reputations, careers, and lives. #TrueCrime #BreakingNews #BrianWalshe #CrimeNews #MurderTrial #Justice #CourtroomDrama #CollegeFootball #InvestigativeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Der Virologe Christian Drosten erhält die Auszeichnung „Rede des Jahres 2025“. Seine Ansprache am Deutschen Institut für Wirtschaft überzeugte die Jury durch Klarheit und gesellschaftliche Relevanz. In SWR Kultur am Mittag erklärt der Rhetorikprofessor Olaf Kramer von der Universität Tübingen: „Drosten hat über Wissenschaftsfreiheit nicht als Privileg gesprochen, sondern als Verantwortung. Er ruft dazu auf, dass sich Forschung aktiv in die demokratische Debatte einbringt.“ Sachlich statt schrill Drosten warnte vor einer „Wissenskrise“ – einer Gesellschaft, die den Bezug zu Fakten verliert. Seine Rede richtet sich gegen politische Stimmen, die Wissenschaft gezielt infrage stellen. „Er bleibt ruhig, analytisch und bescheiden. Genau das macht die Wirkung seiner Rede aus,“ sagt Kramer. In einer Zeit, in der öffentliche Reden oft auf Emotion und Empörung setzen, ist Drostens Stil ein bewusstes Gegenmodell: unaufgeregt, aber präzise. Ein Plädoyer für Vernunft Die Jury lobt Drostens Fähigkeit, komplexe Themen verständlich zu machen. Er zeigt, dass wissenschaftliche Erkenntnis und gesellschaftliche Verantwortung zusammengehören. Für Kramer ist das ein Beispiel dafür, wie Redekultur heute wirken kann: rational, reflektiert und demokratisch. Ein Aufruf zum Denken statt zum Polarisieren.

Jarrett walks through the evidence prosecutors say makes this a strong case, the challenges of seating an impartial jury in today’s hyper-politicized climate, and why allowing Robinson to appear in civilian clothing could influence public perception. Lisa and Gregg also explore the legal path to the death penalty, concerns about politicized prosecutions, and the broader implications this case holds for the justice system.

Kenneth Parks committed one of the strangest and most controversial crimes in modern history. In 1987, he drove fourteen miles in the middle of the night to his in-laws home and attacked them, leaving his mother-in-law dead and his father-in-law severely injured. Then, covered in blood, he walked into a police station and confessed.But Parks insisted he had been asleep the entire time. Doctors found no signs of psychosis, only a lifelong pattern of sleepwalking and night terrors. His defense argued that he experienced a violent sleepwalking episode and never woke up during the attack.In a shocking outcome, the jury agreed. Parks was acquitted of murder and walked free, creating one of the most debated legal precedents in Canadian history. He has lived quietly ever since, with no further violence.So what do you think happened that night? A tragic medical mystery or the perfect excuse for murder?

This Day in Legal History: Madoff ArrestedOn December 11, 2008, Bernard L. Madoff was arrested by federal agents and charged with securities fraud, marking the start of one of the most consequential white-collar crime cases in American legal history. Madoff, a former NASDAQ chairman and respected figure in the investment world, confessed to running a Ponzi scheme that defrauded thousands of investors—individuals, charities, and institutional clients—out of an estimated $65 billion. The legal scheme unraveled when Madoff admitted to his sons that the business was “one big lie,” prompting them to alert authorities. Prosecutors swiftly brought charges under multiple statutes, including securities fraud under 15 U.S.C. § 78j(b), mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, perjury, and false statements.The Department of Justice pursued criminal charges while the SEC, heavily criticized for prior inaction, launched civil enforcement actions under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Madoff waived indictment and pleaded guilty on March 12, 2009, to 11 felony counts without a plea deal. He was sentenced to 150 years in federal prison—the statutory maximum—and ordered to forfeit $170.8 billion, reflecting the full scope of the fraud. The case catalyzed intense scrutiny of the SEC's oversight failures and led to internal reforms within the agency, including new whistleblower protections and enhanced enforcement procedures.In the bankruptcy proceedings under SIPA (Securities Investor Protection Act), trustee Irving Picard was appointed to recover funds for victims, using clawback lawsuits under fraudulent transfer laws to retrieve ill-gotten gains from those who had profited—wittingly or not. The legal theories underpinning those suits, including the application of actual and constructive fraud standards, sparked complex litigation that continues to shape bankruptcy and securities jurisprudence. Madoff's arrest also prompted Congress to review gaps in financial regulation, laying groundwork for reforms later codified in the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010.Jury selection began in the federal trial of Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan, who is accused of helping a Mexican migrant avoid arrest by U.S. immigration agents. The case, brought by the Trump administration's Justice Department, charges Dugan with concealing a person from arrest and obstructing federal proceedings, alleging she deliberately diverted Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and allowed the migrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, to exit through a non-public courthouse door following a domestic violence hearing.Federal prosecutors argue that Dugan acted corruptly, citing her visible anger upon learning that ICE agents were present and her claim that a judicial warrant was required for the arrest—an assertion prosecutors say was false. Flores-Ruiz was ultimately arrested outside the courthouse after a brief chase.Dugan's defense contends that she was navigating unclear rules around courthouse immigration enforcement and had sought guidance from court leadership days earlier. Her legal team maintains she was not trying to obstruct justice but rather to understand what rules applied.The case illustrates the broader tension between local judicial discretion and federal immigration enforcement under Trump's expanded deportation policies, which have included more aggressive operations in local courthouses. Critics argue such tactics deter immigrants from accessing courts and undermine public confidence in the legal system.Dugan, a judge since 2016 and formerly head of Catholic Charities in Milwaukee, has been suspended from the bench pending the outcome of the trial. Her prosecution echoes an earlier Trump-era case against a Massachusetts judge accused of similar conduct—charges that were later dropped during the Biden administration.Wisconsin judge on trial as Trump administration targets immigration enforcement resistance | ReutersThe Center for Biological Diversity filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Interior Department to block its decision to feature President Donald Trump's image on the 2026 America the Beautiful national parks annual pass. The group argues the move violates the Federal Lands Recreational Enhancement Act of 2004, which requires the pass to display the winning photograph from a public contest depicting natural scenery or wildlife in a national park or forest.This year's winning photo—a landscape of Glacier National Park—was allegedly discarded in favor of a close-up image of Trump, posed beside George Washington, without any new contest or congressional approval. The lawsuit calls the switch an unlawful act of self-promotion and criticizes it as an attempt to turn a public symbol into a personal branding tool.Adding to the controversy, the lawsuit claims that the Glacier photo was demoted to a new $250 pass for foreign visitors, part of Trump's newly introduced “America-first” admissions system. The updated pricing structure and design were part of a broader Interior Department announcement touting “modernization” of park access.The lawsuit also highlights changes to the free admission calendar, noting that Trump's birthday (June 14) was added as a holiday, while existing free days honoring Martin Luther King Jr. and Juneteenth were eliminated. These shifts coincide with Trump's efforts to slash the national parks budget and workforce while raising fees for international visitors.Lawsuit seeks to keep Trump's face off of national parks annual pass | ReutersIn a piece for Forbes this week I unpacked the misleading claim that Social Security is no longer taxed under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Despite bold headlines and political messaging to the contrary, Social Security remains taxable, just as it has been since 1983. What the bill actually includes is an expanded senior-specific deduction—$6,000 for individuals and $12,000 for couples—that may reduce taxable income, but doesn't isolate or exempt Social Security from taxation in any way.The structure of Social Security taxation—where up to 85% of benefits can be taxed for higher-income seniors—remains untouched. What changed is that some seniors, depending on income and deductions, might now end up paying less tax, including on Social Security, not because the income is tax-exempt, but because the overall taxable income has been reduced. This is a fungible deduction, applicable to any income source, not a targeted policy shift.The White House's messaging reframes a broad-based, temporary deduction as a specific, permanent tax relief for seniors, creating confusion. While some retirees may see a tax reduction, the underlying rules that govern when and how Social Security is taxed have not changed, and inflation-adjusted thresholds that pull more seniors into taxability remain. The deduction itself expires in 2028, unlike other OBBBA provisions that benefit wealthier taxpayers and corporations.The element worth highlighting is the difference between a deduction and an exemption, and how political messaging often blurs this. Deductions reduce taxable income; exemptions remove specific income from taxation entirely. In this case, branding a general deduction as a Social Security exemption is both legally inaccurate and politically strategic—obscuring the truth behind a familiar and emotionally charged issue.The Truth About ‘No Tax On Social Security'The estate of an 83-year-old woman filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, alleging that their chatbot, ChatGPT, played a central role in a tragic murder-suicide in Connecticut. The suit claims that Stein-Erik Soelberg, a 56-year-old man experiencing delusions, had been interacting for months with GPT-4o, which allegedly validated and intensified his paranoid beliefs, ultimately leading him to kill his mother, Suzanne Adams, before taking his own life.The complaint, filed in California Superior Court, accuses OpenAI and Microsoft of product liability, negligence, and wrongful death, arguing that the chatbot systematically encouraged Soelberg's psychosis—affirming fantasies about divine missions, assassination attempts, and even identifying his mother as an operative. The plaintiffs argue that Microsoft shares liability because it benefited directly from the deployment of GPT-4o and played a role in bringing the model to market.This is the first known lawsuit to link ChatGPT to a homicide, though it follows a growing number of legal actions that claim the AI system has fostered delusions and contributed to suicides. OpenAI denies wrongdoing, emphasizing efforts to improve mental health safeguards and noting that newer models have significantly reduced inappropriate responses in emotionally sensitive conversations.The suit also names OpenAI CEO Sam Altman as a defendant and cites Soelberg's social media posts as evidence of his deteriorating mental state and dependence on the chatbot. The plaintiffs seek monetary damages and a court order to compel OpenAI to implement stronger safety measures. The law firm behind the case, Edelson PC, is also representing a similar lawsuit involving a California teenager's suicide allegedly linked to ChatGPT.OpenAI, Microsoft Sued Over Murder-Suicide Blamed on ChatGPT This is a public episode.

In this segment, defense attorney Bob Motta joins us to dismantle one of the most bizarre strategies unfolding in the Brian Walshe murder trial: the claim that Ana Walshe simply died in her sleep… and Brian responded by dismembering her. Brian has already pleaded guilty to cutting up his wife's body and dumping her remains across multiple towns. That part isn't in dispute. So why is the defense leaning into this “medical emergency” narrative? Bob walks us through the bizarre tactical logic of admitting to the worst possible post-mortem crime while insisting the death itself was natural. We break down how defense attorney Larry Tipton tried to pry open a sliver of possibility during cross-examination — pushing the medical examiner to concede that sudden cardiac events, pulmonary collapses, arrhythmias, even neurological events can happen to healthy adults. But when the doctor immediately added that such an event would be “pretty rare” for a healthy 39-year-old and placed spontaneous arrhythmia “at the bottom of the list,” is there even enough left for reasonable doubt? Bob explains what's really going on here: not proving innocence, but planting a microscopic question mark in the jury's mind. And he weighs in on whether this kind of narrative feels clever… or insulting. We also explore Brian's history — the federal fraud conviction, the ankle bracelet, the pattern of deception — and ask Bob whether juries can realistically separate “bad character” from the question of guilt. Does a convicted con artist get the same benefit of the doubt as everyone else, or do jurors come in expecting manipulation? This one is a psychological and strategic autopsy of a defense theory that's either brilliant misdirection… or a Hail Mary with no receiver downfield. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #BobMotta #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #SuddenDeathDefense #LegalAnalysis #MurderTrial #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Labour zet plannen door om fors minder rechtszaken via juryrechtspraak te laten verlopen. De bedoeling daarvan is het fors terugdringen van de wachttijden voor rechtszaken, die nu soms jarenlang worden uitgesteld. Hoewel Britten steen en been klagen als ze opgeroepen worden voor een jury, dat kost je immers al gauw twee weken en het is geen aanbod dat je af kunt slaan, hebben ze het concept van juryrechtspraak hoog in het vaandel. Hoe werkt zo'n jury, en hoe gaat het voortaan werken?

Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk.

Jonathan Drake goes live for Episode 10 and delivers a sweeping, deeply researched conclusion to his study of Lysander Spooner's No Treason, tying together the Civil War, tariffs, banking panics, and the rise of centralized federal power. He revisits Spooner's argument that the Constitution has either authorized tyranny or failed to prevent it, then walks through the appendix, the moral implications of consent, and the legal fiction of national debt. Jonathan explores the Panic of 1837, British credit manipulation, the cotton economy, Northern financial dominance, and the cascading economic forces that set the stage for secession. He maps Spooner's claims onto real historical data, tariff battles, immigration-driven political shifts, banking collapses, railroad cartelization, and the post-war consolidation of authority, showing how a generations-long chain of financial engineering shaped the America we know today. With humor, live-chat banter, sponsor breaks, and a final tease of his upcoming Trial by Jury series, Jonathan closes the chapter on No Treason by returning to Spooner's core warning: all political power rests on the control of money, and liberty requires breaking that bond.

The trial of Brian Walshe isn't just a courtroom proceeding — it's a showdown between two narratives that couldn't be further apart. On one side, prosecutors have built the kind of timeline you rarely see outside a forensic textbook: predawn Google searches that read like a step-by-step guide to covering up a crime, store receipts for cutting tools and chemicals, cell phone data tracing every mile driven, and DNA pulled from a trash compactor hours from the family home. It's clinical. It's cold. And it's devastating. On the other side, the defense has presented a story rooted not in data but in emotional possibility — the claim that Anna Walshe suddenly died with no warning, and Brian, overwhelmed and terrified, spiraled into a series of decisions that look indistinguishable from deliberate concealment. They're not denying the cover-up. They're reframing it as panic. And that's where the real battle begins: because juries are made of human beings, not forensic analysts. Panic can be messy. Panic can be irrational. Panic can make people do things that look nothing like the person they were the day before. But can panic really explain Google searches that happened before the defense's timeline of death? Can panic explain the house visitor leaving shortly before the alleged moment Anna died? Can panic explain the organized trips to stores in multiple towns, for supplies that prosecutors say match the disposal effort? And if the defense can make even one juror wonder — just wonder — whether it's strange but not impossible? That's a very different outcome. Tonight, we break down what's at stake, why the stories differ so drastically, and why this case may come down to a single question: Which version can a jury actually live with? #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CourtTV #TrialCoverage #CrimeTimeline #ForensicEvidence #LegalAnalysis #BobMotta Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Justice Secretary David Lammy has announced plans for a sweeping range of reforms to criminal courts in England and Wales. The proposals include scrapping jury trials for cases where sentences are likely to be less than three years and for trials involving ‘particularly technical and lengthy fraud and financial offences'. They will only be kept for the most serious offences, including murder, robbery and rape. However there are fears that the proposed changes will have a disproportionate impact on women, whether as victims or when accused of a crime and then particularly for women of colour. Nuala McGovern discusses the reforms with Fiona Rutherford, Chief Executive of legal reform charity Justice, barrister Emma Torr, Co-chief of Appeal, a law practice dedicated to challenging wrongful convictions, and Val Castell, Deputy National Chair of the Magistrates' Association. A petition has been launched calling for a national endometriosis registry to track and audit data on diagnosis, treatment and surgery outcomes. It's been spearheaded by Jessica Smith, who, like an estimated one and a half million women in the UK, suffers with endometriosis, a condition which occurs when the tissue, similar to the lining of the uterus, grows in other places, such as the ovaries and the fallopian tubes. Campaigners say the level of care is a post code lottery, with long wait lists and that by streamlining this information some of the gaps in care could be eliminated. Jessica joins Nuala along with Professor Ranee Thakar, President of the Royal College of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians.The Women's Institute has announced a big change - from next April it will no longer offer membership to transgender women. The UK Supreme Court earlier this year ruled that the legal definition of a woman can only be based on biological sex. This comes the day after it was announced that transgender girls can no longer join the Girl Guides, Brownies or Rainbows. The Women's Institute says it's decision comes with the ‘utmost regret.' Melissa Green, Chief Executive of the National Federation of Women's Institutes explains why they came to this decision. The BBC's political correspondent Phil Sim gives the background.Do you like everything to be perfect for Christmas dinner party hosting – the spotless house, the elaborate menu, the Instagram-worthy table setting? But what if the secret to a great dinner party isn't perfection, but scruffy hosting – a trend that is apparently transforming the way we gather together and makes stress-free dinner parties more attainable - perhaps a one-pot dinner, mismatched cutlery, toys under the table or children running around screaming. Helen Thorn, Comedian, Podcaster and one half of Scummy Mummies tells Nuala why she embraces this type of hosting. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

Today, David Lammy has confirmed plans to get rid of jury trials for crimes with sentences of less than three years.The reforms to the justice system include creating "swift courts" under the government's plan to tackle unprecedented delays in the court system. Serious offences including murder, robbery and rape will still go before a jury. Lammy has said the reforms were “bold” but “necessary”. Adam is joined by home and legal correspondent Dominic Casciani.And, amidst all the noise around last week's budget you may have missed the Prime Ministers suggestion that he will accept all the recomendations made in a report that criticised the UK's nuclear power industry as expensive and “overly complex”.
