Episode 13 : Marginalization : How Society and Culture Intersect with Crime

RLW: This episode jumps head first into an all encompassing topic. Almost every case of a wrongful conviction has an element of marginalization in it. What is Marginalization? Kelly and Kelly break it down and then throw to experts, Dr. Emily Haney Caron and Dr. Erika Fountain. Fountain's research lies at the intersection of developmental psychology, law, and policy and Haney Caron's focus is juvenile justice. They discuss the ways in which our most vulnerable members of society are at the greatest risk of becoming the victim of a wrongful conviction.

We're not going to solve the world's problems in a single episode, but we can crack the topic of what we often don't like to talk about. Marginalization impacts us all. Grab a coffee or something stronger and have a listen.
