First, Dom leads off by asking Williams to take us back to when he was in office, reading back an article from the Philadelphia Inquirer about stop-and-frisk, asking Williams how the paper saw the controversial topic while he was in office. Williams puts on his hat as a law professor, explaining the benefits of stop-and-frisk, also addressing what the Inquirer labels as ‘inherent dangers' of using stop-and-frisk.
Dom welcomes in former DA of Philadelphia Seth Williams back onto the Dom Giordano Program. Williams, who's been a vocal critic of Larry Krasner's progressive reform, joins to contextualize the new Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel, as appointed by newly elected Mayor Cherelle Parker. Williams tells the history of Bethel, explaining the new Commissioner's deep ties to Philadelphia, explaining where he grew up and served as he rose through the ranks of the Philadelphia Police Department. Then, Williams offers his expertise as an elected official, telling how he'd handle dealing with somebody as headstrong in their political ideology as Krasner is, explaining the importance of transparency.

Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner says an "absurd interpretation" of the Second Amendment is to blame for the city's high violent crime, including the mass shooting on Monday, but his blameshifting ignores his own policies and practices, which have returned many violent offenders to the streets after charges were dropped or sweetheart deals were handed out.

Dom welcomes former Republican DA candidate in Philadelphia Chuck Peruto back onto the Dom Giordano Program after he provided an interview to NewsNation's Dan Abrams, in which he told the host that he believes Republicans have no shot in removing Larry Krasner from office after his impeachment. In the interview, Peruto makes the argument that Krasner has done nothing illegal, so for the sake of precedent, he does not believe Krasner should be impeached. Peruto explains that Philadelphians voted him in, and it's the responsibility of Philadelphia voters, through elections, to remove Krasner. Giordano takes umbrage with this, offering to Peruto how he believes this damages the final goal of the impeachment, being heightened public safety for people living in Philadelphia.

Ever since Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner took office in 2018, his work has been under fire. That's because his progressive policies were a game changer for criminal justice reform in the city. Over the summer, state Republicans have been making moves to impeach Krasner. And last week, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives voted to hold Krasner in contempt. City Cast Philly host Trenae Nuri talks with political journalist Denise Clay-Murray about why this call for impeachment is happening now and what could happen next.

In the final hour of today's show, Dom welcomes former Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams to the Program to discuss the heightened crime in and around Philadelphia. First, Giordano and Williams dissect yesterday's weekly press conference held by current DA Krasner, in which he answered questions as to whether tourists should feel safe coming into the city. Then, Giordano and Williams discuss who's to blame for the heightened violence, debating whether Coronavirus had as much an impact on the spike as the DA sells in his press conferences. Then, Williams offers up his own causalities that have led to the current situation, discussing a deep lack of accountability borne in a lack of prosecutions and radically progressive policies. After playing Dom's Money Melody for the day, Williams returns for further discussion, turning to solutions being employed in other cities that have seen their crime rates decrease. Then, to round out the hour, Dom again asks listeners whether they think the United States should participate in the Beijing Olympics.

Criminal Injustice returns with new episodes in September 2021. Until then, we're reposting some of our favorite interviews. This episode originally appeared April 13, 2021.In the US, the local prosecutor – usu the district attorney has a huge influence on the criminal system. The DA influences who gets prosecuted, for what, how long they serve if convicted – even who gets the death penalty. So what happens when the usual tough on crime DA gets replaced – by someone determined to bring transformational change to prosecution? We'll talk with Larry Krasner, the unlikely Philly DA; his election and attempt to bring that change to an entrenched system is told in “Philly DA,” a multi-part documentary airing on PBS. Krasner's memoir, “For the People,” about his life and career up to the day of his swearing in, will be published the same day. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, subject of the series Philly DA, plays our game called "There's Mo... there's Larry... hmm... who's missing?" He is joined by panelists Dulcé Sloan, Mo Rocca, and Alonzo Bodden.
Vox's Jamil Smith talks with Larry Krasner, the former civil rights attorney who's been district attorney of Philadelphia since 2018. They talk about the bold agenda of criminal justice reform that Krasner's office has been trying to implement, the recent upturn in violent crime across the country, and how to stare down the seemingly unshakable system and make real change happen.

In 2017, Krasner, a civil rights attorney who sued the Philadelphia Police Department 75 times throughout his career, mounted a longshot campaign supported by activists and organizers, and ultimately won the District Attorney's seat in a city that has the highest incarceration rate of any large city in the United States. From Krasner's win in 2017 up to the present moment, “Philly D.A.” brings viewers inside the emotional, high-stakes work that Krasner and an ensemble of idealistic outsiders from different walks of life take on as they strive to overhaul an entrenched criminal justice system while grappling with detractors, political opposition and a skeptical public. Verité documentary filmmakers Ted Passon and Yoni Brook secured wide-ranging access to the District Attorney's office, embedding themselves on a near daily basis for the last three years. This unfiltered access captures Krasner's dramatic first year in office and documents the day-to- day struggles of trying to change the entrenched criminal justice system. Krasner and his team drew national headlines as they pushed for reforms such as prosecuting police misconduct and brutality, rethinking sentencing, reforming probation and parole, minimizing the use of cash bail, and ending pursuit of the death penalty. Larry Samuel Krasner is a former public defender and civil rights attorney and the 26th District Attorney of Philadelphia. Heralded as an “anti-establishment” candidate with support from Black Lives Matter and Occupy Philadelphia, Krasner won election in 2017 on a platform of criminal justice reform, which includes reduced incarceration, ending capital punishment and the elimination of cash bail for low level offenses. Krasner appears in Philly D.A. as the central character disrupting Philadelphia's status quo in favor of change.

In this special bonus episode, the DBI team breaks down the incarceration of Emmanuel "Cripple June" Rios and Angel "Spanky" Rodriguez for the 1987 murder of Shawn Nelson that landed them in prison for life. In a bombshell moment, you'll hear a recording, a taped confession to this murder by Mr. Romance Mcarthur, and collected by then Philadelphia criminal defense attorney and current the Republican candidate for Philly DA, Charles Peruto on October 17th, 1987. This tape was never introduced into the trial which led to Mr. Rios' conviction. Death By Incarceration is a show about life behind bars. The USA is the only nation where a minor can be sentenced to die by incarceration before turning 18. A minor can't vote, can't serve in the military, can't drink or smoke, but they CAN go to prison for the rest of their lives. Each week, premiering in June of 2021, hosts David "Suave" Gonzalez (Suave podcast/released lifer) and Kevin McCracken (Adulting Well podcast) will be joined by law-makers, community leaders, policy-makers, formerly incarcerated and the currently incarcerated as they shed light on institutions that viciously target and harm marginalized communities, specifically communities of color.

*In the US, the local prosecutor – usu the district attorney has a huge influence on the criminal system. The DA influences who gets prosecuted, for what, how long they serve if convicted – even who gets the death penalty. So what happens when the usual tough on crime DA gets replaced – by someone determined to bring transformational change to prosecution?* *We’ll talk with* *Larry Krasner* ( https://www.phila.gov/districtattorney/aboutus/Pages/DistrictAttorney.aspx ) *, the unlikely Philly DA; his election and attempt to bring that change to an entrenched system is told in* *“Philly DA,”* ( https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/films/philly-da/ ) *a multi-part documentary airing on PBS beginning April 20.

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner joins us to discuss the promise and peril of institutional reform and how he built a coalition of voters who are traditionally overlooked in politics. He spent his career as a civil rights attorney, not a as a prosecutor like his predecessors. He's part of a growing movement of progressive district attorneys who focus on ending mass incarceration, not solely on enforcing law and order. Krasner won in 2017 and increased voter turnout in an off-year election; he is up for re-election this year. He is the subject of the new PBS Independent Lens documentary Philly D.A., which follows his campaign and first three years in office. He is also the author of For the People: A Story of Justice and Power. Both the book and the documentary series will be released April 20.Additional InformationPhilly D.A. from PBS Independent LensFor the People: A Story of Justice and PowerThis week's featured show from The Democracy Group podcast network: Let's Find Common GroundRelated EpisodesWhat Serial taught Sarah Koenig about criminal justiceThe world's most punitive democracy

Philly DA hosts a special collection of 10 portraits by their first-ever artist-in-residence spotlighting those impacted by, and impacting, our justice system
Host and KYW Newsradio Community Affairs Reporter Cherri Gregg asks the burning questions about non-voters in Pennsylvania and beyond. In 2016, it 41 percent of eligible voters- or nearly 100 million Americans- in did not vote in the general election. Why do so many American opt of our democracy? Who are these individuals? How does their decision not to engage impact politics? We look at the 100 Million Project, a survery of 12,000 non-voters, released earlier this year by the Knight Foundation, as well as a recent poll of young Black Philadelphians, as a backdrop on this discussion of non-voters. Evette Alexander, director of learning and impact with the Knight Foundation and Bishop Dwayne Royster, Interim Executive Director of POWER provide expertise on this topic. Our newsmaker of the week is Seth Williams. In this encore presentation of an interview heard first on KYW Newsradio, Philadelphia’s former district attorney discusses his transformation while serving three years in federal prison. In 2017, Williams pleaded guilty to bribery. Currently under federal supervision, he is off of house arrest and working to rebuild his life. Finally, the Patriot Homeware Changemaker of the week is Urban League of Philadelphia. The advocacy organization works for economic equality and has worked with the School District of Philadelphia on programs that help eliminate the digital divide, deal with food insecurity among students and more. ULP also launched #ReclaimYourVote. CEO Andrea Custis is guest. Flashpoint airs every Saturday at 9:30 p.m. and Sunday at 8:30 a.m. on 1060AM.

The family of police shooting victim Khalil Lawal confronted Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner over the questionable way that the so-called "Progressive Prosecutor" has handled several cases.
For this May Day episode William had the chance to speak with Nutty, who has been holding down a monopod blockade which is blocking the construction of the Mountain Valley Pipeline in the renamed Hellbender Autonomous Zone. She has been without the ability to reup her food and water supplies for over 21 days due to cop and forest ranger interference. We get to speak about the monopod and her experiences participating in this struggle, as well as her views on resisting the MVP, some ideas on the future of this struggle, some actionable items, and direct asks for support. On the very first day of this blockade as some listeners will remember, Nutty's direct support was arrested while trying to explain the rigging of the blockade to the police. Monopods rely on a series of rigs to support a platform where resisters typically sit. The Mountain Valley Pipeline, which is a massive 303 mile proposal by the company Dominion Resources in partnership with Duke Energy and Piedmont Natural Gas, is proposed to span land from northwestern West Virginia to southern Virginia and would disrupt and destroy countless habitats and complex interconnected water supplies, as well as the human communities it would likewise destroy. To hear an in depth podcast about this issue, I recommend End of the Line broadcasting out of Richmond, which you can find at http://pipelinepodcast.org/ and on https://soundcloud.com/pipelinepodcast/ Our guest will mention in the interview that the MVP's proposal just got amended to go through a 70 mile stretch of North Carolina. For those who are concerned by this, we'd recommend looking into the Atlantic Coast Pipeline which would span a 600 mile track of land over WV VA and NC. Opposition to this pipeline is already gaining steam, so keep an eye on your favorite news sources for updates on that.

Next up is a conversation Bursts had with two community organizers in Sonoma County, California, named Sebastían and Mara. These two folks do organizing around immigrant communities and are helping to organize May Day festivities in Santa Rosa this year. Sebastían and Mara share about past years organizing around May Day, immigrant struggles against ICE and community efforts in the follow up to the devestating fires that raged through Northern California last year. Mara also shares about last year's workplace organizing initiatives of Sonoma County waste workers that won them a contract, agricultural workers who won a contract from Gallo Sonoma Vinyard, and current struggles of employees at the Hyatt Vinyard Creek Santa Rosa. Sebastían also talks about the student walkouts he helped to organize on March 5th and plans for similar walkouts on May Day alongside the “Day Without An Immigrant.” . … . .. Finally, we'll hear from Jack and Quinn, two local Wobblies helping to plan a May Day rally and march in Asheville meeting at 4pm at Pritchard Park in downtown. Later that evening Blue Ridge Anarchist Black Cross will be hosting a benefit concert at Fleetwoods on Haywood rd in West Asheville. The show starts at 8pm and will feature the music of Poor Excuse, WRHCKD, Earth Collider & Nomadic War Machine and the moneys will go to the local efforts to release black mothers from the Buncombe County Jail via the Black Mama Bail Fund effort on May 10th. More info on Black Mama Bail Out at https://nomoremoneybail.org/ For a longer version of the chat with the Asheville Wobblies, check out the podcast version. There you'll also find announcements about Herman Bell and Mumia Abu-Jamal. If you care to, you can send us a letter at our new address: The Final Straw P.O. Box 6004 Asheville, NC 28816 There is no Sean Swain segment this week due to scheduling errors on our part, but don't worry we promise to have him back on next week's episode. If you miss the sound of his voice, you can his website, SeanSwain.org and easily find his segments going back to 2014. Announcements: Herman Bell leaves prison!!!: We're happy to announce that former Black Panther, BLA soldier and elder Herman Bell walked free from prison this week. From his support crew: On Friday, April 27th, Herman Bell, a 70-year old respected elder, was released after serving nearly 45 years in prison. Herman was one of thousands of incarcerated older people who was repeatedly denied parole for over a decade after completing his minimum sentence. “His release is a result of important and urgent changes in the criminal legal system and parole regulations that are part of nationwide efforts to end mass incarceration. Let us hope that Herman's release brings inspiration for more change. “Herman is deeply humbled and grateful for the broad expressions of trust and support, but out of respect for the feelings of the victims' families, he will not be making any public statements. We welcome him home. And so do we at The Final Straw. Pack The Courtroom for Mumia: In other political prisoner news, Mumia Abu-Jamal has a court appearance tomorrow, April 30th in Philadelphia and his support crew is asking folks in the area to show up and pack the courthouse. Show up in courtroom attire to support Mumia at 8am at room 1108, Criminal Justice Center at 13th and Filbert St in Philadelphia. In this hearing the Judge will consider the argument that former PA Supreme Court Judge Castille should have recused himself from considering Mumia's appeal because Castille had been working with the Philly DA's office at the time of Mumia's prosecution and during later appeals. A similar situation was deemed unconstitutional in the U.S. Supreme Court in the 2016 Williams v. Pennsylvania. There is also a call for supporters of Mumia to call current Philly DA Larry Krasner and request that he release the files on Mumia from the Philadelphia District Attorney office and Philadelphia Police Department. You can call Larry Krasner at 215-686-8000. More ideas of how to help out Mumia can be found at mobilization4mumia.com. Correction from the scott crow interview from Bursts: On last week's episode of our show, in which I interviewed scott crow about his new book “Setting Sites”, I asked a question about toxic masculinity and gun culture by using the term “male socialized” to describe men. I misspoke. What I meant to communicate in the question was masculine expectation and performativity and not to lump people who've been coercively assigned male by society based on a doctor's childhood assessment. I should have said “men”. Sorry for the misspeak and thanks to the folks who gave us feedback. . … . .. Playlist here.
Host and KYW Newsradio community affairs reporter Cherri Gregg asks the burning questions about the price of resistance. This the country marked the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He was one of the most famous lives lost in the struggle for racial equality, but countless others also made sacrifices. Fast forward, and lives are still being lost. So what is the modern cost of resistance? Guests weigh in. Other guests include, Patricia Cummings, head of Philly DA's Conviction Integrity Unit and Anisha Sinha of West Philadelphia Alliance for Children.
