Description

In today’s episode, Michael dives deep into a thought-provoking question inspired by his own jury summons: Would you be more or less likely to believe the testimony of a police officer because of his or her job? As part of today's poll at Smerconish.com, Michael explores the nuances behind public trust in law enforcement and shares how his own views have evolved over the years.

But that’s not all—this episode takes a personal turn as Michael recounts fascinating stories from his trial lawyer days, including courtroom battles involving boxing promoter Don King and the Fraternal Order of Police. Packed with legal insight, personal anecdotes, and thoughtful reflection on the justice system, this episode is both timely and timeless. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
