Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A set of cases currently under review by the Supreme Court may nullify "Megan’s Laws" across the country. The Court is exploring whether laws requiring sexual offenders to register with police after their release from prison may wrongfully single out this group of criminals. We’ll examine the arguments on both sides, and the impact the Court’s decision may have on Maryland, Virginia, and DC.
Guests
- Ken Lanning Private Consultant; former FBI Special Agent with the Behavioral Science Unit at Quantico
- Laura Ahearn Director, Parents for Megan's Law; Author, "Megan's Law Nationwide"
- Samia Fam Public Defender, District of Columbia
