October 14, 2016: Habeas Corpus

Play

The focus this week is on the impact of habeas corpus both for prisoners and their loved ones. We begin with news on a call-in effort for queer and trans prisoners in Michigan, followed by updates on the death due to neglect of a Michigan prisoner and the forced transfer of an Alabama prisoner. We touch on the story of Bresha Meadows, a teen from Ohio being held for the alleged murder of her abusive father. We hope that those who listen to our show share our mission to pass these kites toward their intended destination.
