January 6, 2021.  A day that will go down as one of the darkest in American history.  Thousands of supporters of President Trump assembled outside the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC to object to Congress' certification of Senator Biden's electoral college victory and stop what they view as a stolen election.  What happens next is heartbreaking.  Breaching security, supporters of the President storm the building and invade the Capitol itself until, outside the rotunda, they are met by armed guards.  In the melee that follows, one of the protesters, 35-year-old Ashli Babbitt, who had flown all the way from California to join the protests, is shot in the neck as she attempts to climb through a broken window.

In this episode of The Blame Game, we will try to answer the question of who is responsible, if anyone, for Ms. Babbitt's tragic death.  And to help us answer it, we turn to respected CNN legal analyst, Paul Callan.  A former prosecutor and deputy chief of homicide in the Brooklyn DA's office, Mr. Callan is best known for representing the estate of Nicole Brown Simpson in the O.J. Simpson civil litigation.  He now focuses his practice on civil actions involving wrongful imprisonment, wrongful convictions, and sexual abuse.
