Instead, 774-million dollars will be spent improving the existing system and to make changes to New Zealand's care system. Timothy Brown has the story.

A coroner has found convicted murderer Paul Tainui would have had the traits of a criminal psychopath in 2010 but it wasn't detected when the Parole Board asked for him to be assessed. Tainui, who was born Paul Russell Wilson - raped and murdered Kimberley Schroder in 1994. Before his release for that crime in 2010, Tainui went through psychological testing and it was found he did not meet the level to be assessed a psychopath and was low risk of reoffending in most circumstances. But Coroner Marcus Elliott has ruled Tainui's offending in 1994 and 2018 was that of a criminal psychopath and he must have had those traits in 2010, senior reporter Timothy Brown spoke to Lisa Owen about the details.

Brown, in October of 2023. But In July, District Court Judge Paul A. Engelmayer dismissed a number of charges in the SEC's complaint against SolarWinds and Brown. To talk about this significant development in the case, Stephanie Pell, Lawfare Senior Editor and Brookings Fellow, sat down with Shoba Pillay, a partner at Jenner & Block and a former federal prosecutor, and Jennifer Lee, also a partner at Jenner & Block and a former Assistant Director in the SEC's Division of Enforcement. They discussed the court's rationale for allowing some charges to stand, while dismissing others, what stood out most in the dismissal of the case, and how this case may shape the SEC's cybersecurity enforcement actions in the future.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
