Ep. 82: The Government Took My Land Rover. Now What?
If you\u2019re charged with a crime, can the government just take your stuff? The practice of seizing property from criminal defendants, known as civil forfeiture, has skyrocketed over the past decade, but a new Supreme Court case looks likely to rein it in. To discuss the issue and the case, we\u2019re joined this week by senior reporter Diana Jones. Also on this week\u2019s show, we discuss another of President Trump\u2019s controversial judicial nominees; Reed Smith firing a partner accused of sexual harassment; and how fewer and fewer people can pass the California bar exam.
