Podcasts about Offenders

When 23-year-old Kada Scott vanished after her nursing-home shift, she did everything right. She reported harassment. She said she felt unsafe. Two weeks later, she was found in a shallow grave behind an abandoned Philadelphia school. The man charged with her kidnapping — Keon King — was no stranger to the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office. Earlier this year, King had been arrested for stalking and strangling another woman. There was video evidence. There was opportunity. And yet, District Attorney Larry Krasner's team dropped the case. Months later, Kada Scott was gone. Krasner admits, “We could have done better.” But that's not accountability — that's an obituary for justice. Under Larry Krasner's leadership, Philadelphia's conviction rate for violent crimes has plummeted to roughly 33 percent, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer. Officers call it a “revolving door.” Federal prosecutors have accused his office of leniency that costs lives. And the pattern keeps repeating: In 2019, Officer James O'Connor IV was shot and killed by a suspect whose earlier charges Krasner's office had dropped. In 2020, U.S. Attorney William McSwain cited ten other cases where defendants given light treatment by Krasner went on to commit new violent crimes. Gun-crime prosecutions have collapsed even as shootings soar. Krasner's defenders call it “reform.” But when entire neighborhoods live in fear, when families like the Scotts bury loved ones, that's not reform — that's failure disguised as progress. This isn't about politics. It's about competence, duty, and the lives lost because one office keeps choosing ideology over accountability. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski breaks down the numbers, the names, and the moral cost of a DA who promised fairness but delivered chaos. Because when justice becomes an experiment, real people become the test subjects — and Philadelphia keeps paying the price.

The conversation delves into the concept of deterrence in crime prevention, emphasizing that the likelihood of being caught and punished is a more significant factor than the severity of the punishment itself. It highlights that longer sentences do not effectively deter crime if offenders believe they can evade capture.In the intricate world of criminal law, understanding the principles of punishment and sentencing is crucial. This post delves into the philosophical debates and practical applications that shape the justice system today. From historical shifts to modern challenges, we explore the core tensions and evolving standards that define this field.The Evolution of Punishment: Historically, punishment has transformed from physical and public sanctions to more regulated and humane approaches. This shift reflects changing societal values and the evolving standards of decency that courts use today. The question remains: why do we punish at all? This leads us to the two major philosophies in sentencing—utilitarianism and retribution.Retribution vs. Utilitarianism: Retribution focuses on the past act, advocating for punishment as a moral necessity. In contrast, utilitarianism looks forward, weighing the societal benefits against the costs of punishment. This philosophical divide influences every sentencing decision, from deterrence to rehabilitation.The Role of Deterrence: Deterrence is a key goal in utilitarian sentencing, aiming to prevent future crimes. However, the effectiveness of deterrence is debated, with studies showing that the certainty of punishment is more impactful than its severity. This insight challenges the traditional reliance on harsh sentences as a deterrent.Constitutional Limits and the Eighth Amendment: The Eighth Amendment serves as a constitutional check against excessive punishment. Its interpretation has led to significant legal precedents, particularly in capital cases. The amendment's role in non-capital cases, however, remains a topic of debate, with courts often deferring to legislative policy choices.The landscape of punishment and sentencing is complex, shaped by historical, philosophical, and legal factors. As we navigate these challenges, the balance between retribution and utilitarian goals continues to evolve. Understanding these dynamics is essential for anyone studying or practicing criminal law.Subscribe Now: Stay informed on the latest developments in criminal law by subscribing.TakeawaysThe deterrent effect of certainty is much stronger than severity.Longer sentences are ineffective if offenders think they can escape punishment.Severity deters only when the certainty of being caught is high.Offenders' calculations are influenced more by perceived chances of getting caught than by potential penalties.Understanding offender behavior is crucial for effective crime prevention strategies.Policies should focus on increasing the likelihood of apprehension rather than just increasing penalties.The relationship between certainty and severity is complex and requires careful consideration.Effective deterrence strategies must address the mindset of potential offenders.Crime prevention efforts should prioritize certainty over severity in their approaches.Research consistently supports the importance of certainty in deterrence.deterrence, crime prevention, certainty, punishment, severity, offender behavior

Send us a textEpisode Notes.Title: Forgiveness of Offenders – 2 Corinthians 2:5–11  In today's episode, we read of Paul's urgent call to forgive those who have repented. Writing to the Corinthians, Paul shows that forgiveness isn't just a personal choice — it is a spiritual battle. To withhold forgiveness is to give Satan a foothold; but to forgive, comfort, and reaffirm love is to disarm the enemy and reflect the heart of Christ.We'll see why forgiveness is central to Christian discipleship, how Satan exploits bitterness, and how we can walk in the freedom and joy of Christ's victory.The Balance of GrayFaith That Challenges.

Spoilers Warning! If you haven't finished reading the 900 pages of The Hallmarked Man and don't want to hear details from the novel, you will not enjoy this conversation about Strike8.John read the latest Strike-Ellacott novel by Thursday morning using the pre-publication head start, the Robert Glenister audiobook dropped early Tuesday morning, a bootleg epub version on his wife's iPad, and the codex hardcover that arrived at 5:00 on the day of release. Nick didn't finish until early Saturday but was already half-way through his second reading via audiobook by Sunday night.John didn't especially enjoy reading the book as fast as he did; Nick was frustrated that he could not read it faster than he did. Both were delighted by Rowling's work and are looking forward to the coming weeks of re-reading and ‘Tools, Springs, and Threads' analysis of its artistry and meaning.In this week's conversation, they touch on fandom disappointment with the new book before discussing how three predictions they'd made about Hallmarked Man played out, the three Real World targets of Rowling's wrath in her current work, John's preliminary work on the novel's epigraphs (and the Aurora Leigh-esque forgotten tome of epic poetry that may be Strike8's Rosmersholm or Faerie Queene), and what's next in their reading of Cormoran Strike.As is their wont, Nick and John refer to ideas and to people that Serious Readers will want to check up on or learn more about. Here are a selection of links to many of these subjects with their apology for those they've missed and their invitation to share counter-sources or requests for other links.They thank everyone who listens to these Lake and Shed conversations, those who join in the discussions in the comment thread below (how was your first reading of Hallmarked Man?), and especially for our paid subscribers who were polled for their questions and concerns last week for our consideration before we put our notes together.Hogwarts Professor is a reader-supported publication.

Anteros is the subject of the Shaftesbury Memorial in Piccadilly Circus, London, where he symbolizes the selfless philanthropic love of the Earl of Shaftesbury for the poor. The memorial is sometimes given the name The Angel of Christian Charity and is popularly mistaken for Eros, cf., Lloyd & Mitchinson (2006) The Book of General Ignorance “Because of the bow and the nudity… everybody assumed it was Eros, the Greek god of love.”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anteroshttps://www.theoi.com/Ouranios/ErosAnteros.htmlEros is the brother of Anteros and also pretty much the opposite of Eros.Reading Rowling at Four Levels (John Granger, 2021)Robin and Cormoran, even if you want to include Sam Barclay, are not a soul exteriorization akin to Harry, Hermione, and Ron. The psychomachia of the Strike novels is built on the Shakespearean soul-Spirit romantic model rather than the Platonic-Patristic body-mind-spirit soul triptych of ancient, Medieval, and contemporary film and written fiction. In this model, the man and woman lede players take the part of soul and spirit, Coomaraswamy's duo sunt in homine human and divine aspects, either as fixed roles as in Othello and The Tempest or in relation to the other, each being soul and embracing the other as supra-natural as in Romeo and Juliet and Antony and Cleopatra (see Lings and Pogson for that). Rowling's embedded models for this exteriorized drama of human sanctification are the myths of ‘Leda and the Swan‘ and ‘Psyche and Cupid‘ and the psychomachia spiritual allegories of Eros and Anteros, true and false Cupid, within Spenser's Faerie Queen, the Redcrosse Knight and Una as well as Britomart and Artegell.On Valentine Longcaster as the Erotic Cupid (Strike being the Anterotic Cupid)Valentine Longcaster is a hilarious cryptonym for Cupid, for whom Valentine is a second name (see the post on Valentine's Day in the Psyche and Eros post) and ‘Longcaster' is a reference to his weapon of choice, the bow and arrow of the god of love. He pricks Strike at the direction of Venus-Charlotte, in some myths his mother, in others a lover and cousin or brother (murky waters!), and sets in motion the long-range plan of the envious ex to destroy Robin and Cormoran's budding relationship.Add ‘Valentine Longcaster' to the pile of evidence for this particular backdrop and let's continue to look for parallels and links Rowling has playfully embedded in the psycho-spiritual, neo-mythological allegory of the soul's journey to perfection, and specifically the souls of women.For much more on this Eros-Anteros distinction and its importance in grasping the allegorical meaning of the Strike-Ellacott relationship, see Ink Black Heart: Strike as Zeus to Robin's Leda and Cupid to Mads' Psyche (John Granger, 2022)Fandom Response to Hallmarked Man:From the Reddit r/Cormoran Strike page:Hogwarts Professor Predictions for Hallmarked Man:* Charlotte was Murdered (Nick Jeffery), Really, It Wasn't a Suicide (John Granger)‘Charlotte' mentioned twice as often in Strike 8 as ‘Cormoran' and Valentine Longcaster's interview with Robin Ellacott has a major ‘tell' at its finish (cf. p 451, ch 62).* Robin Ellacott is Sterile (John Granger), Rowling Studies podcastEctopic Pregnancy consequent to PID and Murphy Pregnancy Trap leading to de facto sterility prediction appears as story-line in Chapter 3 of Hallmarked Man* The Baby in the LakeHallmarked Man is Rowling's ‘Baby Novel.'Rowling's Three Targets in Hallmarked Man's Surface Story* The Ideologically Captured Police and Media and the ‘False Religion' of Freemasonry's Control of the Police in Hallmarked ManRowling's Week of publication tweets and retweets about UK police taking the side of Trans Activists and against Gender Critical feminists: * https://x.com/iain_masterton/status/1963545948711219320 (JKR retweet)* https://x.com/joannaccherry/status/1963547738722668666 (ditto)* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1963528602164555894* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1963297139905167722* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1962847107343139014* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1963465628053848363* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1963299236365140305* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1963298726417457300* https://x.com/soniasodha/status/1963185964630647295 (JKR retweet; nota bene)* https://x.com/Jebadoo2/status/1962959405160239135 (JKR retweet)* https://x.com/joannaccherry/status/1962930361035374703 (retweet)* https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1962932333025067268* https://x.com/JohannLamont/status/1963658557007749364 (retweet)Boris Johnson and Lord BranfootBoris Johnson hosting the show. 2003 (YouTube)Boris Johnson's Personal Image or Brand (Wikipedia)Max Hastings referred to Johnson's public image as a "façade resembling that of P.

He's the only feel-good politician we have, everyone else is too busy being responsible."[6] To the journalist Dave Hill, Johnson was "a unique figure in British politics, an unprecedented blend of comedian, conman, faux subversive showman and populist media confection".* “Mentally Ill Islamophobes”2021-22 Census ~ Islam in the UK Demographics: 6% UK, 6.7% England, 15% LondonUK 'Grooming Gangs': Deriving Per-Capita Offence Rates by EthnicityInstitute for Social Policy Research (UK) An independent, data-driven social-policy research institute focusing on UK political affairs.We therefore conclude that consistent with widespread public perceptions, whilst available evidence is not exhaustive, the mean rate derived from four of the most comprehensive studies available to date on share of CSEGG crimes by ethnicity does affirm the picture that Asians and Blacks are overrepresented in such crimes. Curiously, with much of the attention devoted to “Asians” (predominantly Pakistani gangs), it is notable that Blacks are similarly overrepresented, with our weighted rate providing limited evidence of even greater over-representation than Asians.Please note, however —For the CEOP study that ISPR use, footnote 1 shows the selection criteria, excluding all abuse initiated in a familial or fraternal (house based) relationship:"Where “localised-grooming” is defined as: “a form of sexual exploitation – previously referred to as ‘on street grooming' in the media - where children have been groomed and sexually exploited by an offender, having initially met in a location outside their home. this location is usually in public, such as a park, cinema, on the street or at a friend's house. Offenders often act together, establishing a relationship with a child or children before sexually exploiting them. some victims of ‘street grooming' may believe that the offender is in fact an older ‘boyfriend'; these victims introduce their peers to the offender group who might then go on to be sexually exploited as well. abuse may occur at a number of locations within a region and on several occasions. ‘Localised grooming' was the term used by CEOP in the intelligence requests issued to police forces and other service agencies in order to define the data we wished to receive.” (footnote 1, p. 7)"They also exclude the 39% of cases where race was not included in the data. It would be sensible to assume that ethnicity was not recorded when the ethnicity of both perpetrators and the victim were the UK default.Removing the selection criteria shows that people of Asian ethnicity are under-represented in child sex abuse cases compared to White British: https://www.csacentre.org.uk/app/uploads/2024/02/Trends-in-Offical-Data-2022-23-FINAL.pdfJulie Blindel pushes back on the ‘Grooming Gang as Muslim problem' narrative:To say that the only reason the police were complacent when it came to the grooming gangs of Rochdale, Rotherham, Telford, and elsewhere was because (some of) these men were Pakistani Muslim, is madness. The ethnicity and religion of these men is relevant, but not in the way the racists would have us believe. It is relevant because it was seen as a phenomena perpetrated because of ethnicity as opposed to male violence towards females.

Send us a textIn this episode, I'm talking about a battle we've all faced at some point: pool pros vs. landscapers and gardeners. Whether it's broken vacuum lines, blown leaves into a freshly cleaned pool, or just bad timing on service days, I've seen it all. I'll share stories, some hard-earned lessons, and ways you can set boundaries and communicate better with the other folks working the same properties.

In this powerful broadcast, the hosts dissect the tragic death of 15-year-old Chastity Wilson, a cheerleader killed by a habitual drunk driver with a decades-long rap sheet of DUIs, grand theft, burglary, and forgery. They expose how South Carolina's judicial system—where legislators appoint judges, many from their own law firms—routinely lets repeat offenders walk free with “time served” sentences and reduced charges. The discussion highlights systemic failures, conflicts of interest, and the profound human cost when a culture of leniency collides with an unaccountable judiciary.

This powerful double-segment dives into two gripping themes: the deadly reality of driving in South Carolina's Upstate—where red-light running, DUIs, and judicial failures cost lives—and new scrutiny surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. The host shares a listener's story of survival thanks to a simple driving tip and exposes how habitual offender Kevin Clinton Harrison caused a fatal crash yet avoided prison for years. Then, the episode shifts to unravel inconsistencies in the Epstein investigation, raising questions about the FBI, hidden client lists, and suspicious surveillance failures. It's a stark reminder that accountability—whether on our roads or in our justice system—remains elusive.

These two intense broadcasts weave together urgent national and local crises. The first transcript exposes ongoing Iranian plots to assassinate Donald Trump, failures within the Secret Service after multiple attacks, and Senate GOP efforts to slash funding for agencies like USAID over alleged bioweapons shipments to China. The second transcript tells the heartbreaking story of 15-year-old Chastity Nelson, killed by a habitual drunk driver whose prior DUIs were mishandled by the courts. Overflowing vigils honored her memory while her devastated community demanded reform. Together, these segments highlight the consequences of institutional negligence and the threats facing American leaders and families alike

Alcatraz could soon be reopened as a prison. The facility on a small island in San Francisco was closed as a prison in 1963 and has since been turned into a tourist destination. But President Donald Trump says he wants the facility reopened to house the most dangerous criminals. And while some have suggested the prison is not feasible because of its limited space and high maintenance costs, Trump says it will act as a symbol of law and order.Views expressed in this episode are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

It's Thursday, May 8th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Iran continues to imprison Christian pastor and wife Authorities in Iran continue to hold a pastor's wife, 56-year-old Lida Alexani, in solitary confinement after arresting the pastor, reports Article 18. Iranian-Armenian pastor Joseph Shahbazian was arrested in February and sent to the infamous Evin Prison in Tehran. He has faced prison time before for participating in a house church and collecting tithes. Authorities also arrested his wife last month. Iran has criminalized offering tithes to support church activities. The country is ranked ninth on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  India launched air strikes on Pakistan On Tuesday, India launched air strikes on Pakistan. India said it was in retaliation for an attack last month from alleged Pakistani nationals. India and Pakistan are on the brink of a wider conflict. Local church leaders are calling for Christians to pray for the countries. Bishop Nadeem Kamran is the head of the Anglican Church of Pakistan's Diocese of Lahore. He told Christian Daily International, “As the fear of war looms over the subcontinent, I ask all Christians in the two countries to observe … a day of prayer and fasting for peace in the region.” In 1 Timothy 2:1-2, the Apostle Paul wrote, “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” Trump's truce with Houthis On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced a truce with the Houthis in Yemen. The United States has been carrying out strikes on the Houthis in Yemen for weeks. This is in response to the Houthis attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea. Despite the truce, the Houthis said they will continue attacks on Israel in support of Palestinians in Gaza. Listen to Trump's comments at an Oval Office meeting. TRUMP: “The Houthis have announced that they don't want to fight anymore. We will honor that. We will stop the bombings. They have capitulated.” Trump will rebuild and reopen Alcatraz off San Francisco coast President Trump announced Sunday he is directing the Bureau of Prisons to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz. The small island is located 1.25 miles offshore from San Francisco near the Golden Gate Strait. The island was developed in the mid-19th century with facilities for a lighthouse, a military fortification, and a military prison. In 1934, the island was converted into a federal prison, Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary. The strong currents around the island and cold water temperatures made escape nearly impossible. The prison became one of the most notorious in American history. Trump posted on Truth Social that the infamous former prison will “house America's most ruthless and violent Offenders. We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals, who came into our Country illegally. The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE.” The prison closed 60 years ago, but once housed the likes of Al Capone, George “Machine Gun” Kelly, and James “Whitey” Bulger. HHS denounces misguided treatments for gender confusion The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released a report last Thursday, denouncing so-called treatments for gender confusion. The study evaluated the impact of transgender drugs and surgeries on children.  The department noted, “These interventions carry risk of significant harms including infertility/sterility, sexual dysfunction, impaired bone density accrual, adverse cognitive impacts, cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders, psychiatric disorders, surgical complications, and regret.” Federal Reserve keeps interest rate in the 4.25%-4.5% range The Federal Reserve decided to keep interest rates unchanged on Wednesday.  The Fed's benchmark interest rate remains at 4.25% to 4.5%. The Fed warned of potentially higher unemployment and inflation as the economy adjusts to President Trump's tariff plan. Meanwhile, Trump continues to call for lower interest rates. World's largest page of Bible just printed to honor Gutenberg Press And finally, the International Gutenberg Society printed the world's largest page of the Bible, measuring 38 square yards, on April 26th, 2025 in Mainz, Germany. The event commemorated the 625th anniversary of the birth of Johannes Gutenberg. The German inventor created the moveable-type printing press. And he produced the first printed version of the Bible. The Gutenberg printing press revolutionized the dissemination of the Bible, making it more accessible to a wider audience than ever before. Prior to Gutenberg's invention, Bibles were hand-copied, a laborious process that made them expensive and rare. The printing press allowed for mass production, increasing availability and lowering costs. This led to a surge in literacy, the spread of the Bible, and Christianity. The commemorative event showcased a massive copy of the first page of John's Gospel. It was made from the largest industrial paper rolls available and covered nearly 400 square feet.  John 1:1-4 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 8th, my 59th birthday, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

4:05- - Alex Stone, President Trump said in a post to Truth Social on Sunday that he is ordering the Bureau of Prisons to reopen and expand the famed Alcatraz Island prison, which lies off the coast of San Francisco, "to house America's most ruthless and violent Offenders."  The prison was closed in 1963 due to crumbling infrastructure and the high costs of repairing and supplying the island facility, because everything from fuel to food had to be brought by boat. Add to that: "The Rock" is a major tourist site that is operated by the National Park Service and is a designated National Historic Landmark. Alcatraz gets about 1.6 million sightseers and generates about $60 million annually.   4:20pm – Conway Crew's Cinco De Mayo celebration plans and what is Cinco De Mayo?  4:35— Michael Monks, L.A. mayor says animal shelters won't close.

Reopening Alcatraz as a high-security prison for the nation’s most dangerous offenders, as proposed by President Trump, could provide a highly controlled and isolated environment that enhances public safety. Its remote location and natural defenses make escape nearly impossible, reducing the risk of threats both inside and outside the facility. Unsurprisingly, the proposal has triggered strong reactions from the political left, who view it as a harsh return to punitive justice and an affront to prison reform efforts. Make no mistake this triggering effect is just what President Trump wanted. Because for many Americans, the idea of re-opening Alcatraz underscores the administration’s tough-on-crime approach and willingness to act boldly in the face of rising public safety concerns.
