Civil rights defense attorneys Michael Block and Ben White join Bad Faith to discuss the fatal beating of prisoner Robert Brooks at the Marcy Correctional Facility in New York and a similar case that their law firm Bloch & White is handling. How has advocacy for criminal justice reform changed since the BLM era, and to what extent did Democratic leadership fail the moment? Is there any optimism that liberals will recommit to the criminal justice promises they claimed to espouse during Trump's first term now that he's returning to the White House? Or does the decision of blue state liberals like NY Gov. Kathy Hochul to run to the right on these issues portend a further rightward drift over the next four years? And did the left bring this rightward shift on itself by not taking crime concerns seriously (à la Ana Kasparian's argument)? Or is something else at play?
