Pardons seem to be trending lately, especially in politics. However, don't they undermine the entire justice system? In this episode we will discuss the 4 purposes of the justice system and corrections - starting way back with some biblical history. Then we will dive into presidential pardon powers, the pros and cons, as well as my personal views. As always, we will wrap up with ways you can help to make the justice system better.
Also, if you are wondering what happened over the break, there will be a catch-up at the end as well.
