Conviction at Any Cost

Welcome to Season 2 of Hashing Out the Law, the podcast where we discuss and hash out legal issues and/or topics.

I am Arash Hashemi and on this episode we will be talking to, Maurice Possley. Mr. Possley is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who left the Chicago Tribune after nearly 25 years as an investigative reporter specializing in criminal justice. He was a journalist for 36 years and was a finalist for the Pulitzer three times for his work on wrongful convictions and wrongful executions. In 2008, he was part of team of Tribune reporters who were awarded Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting for a series of articles on hazardous children's products that prompted numerous recalls as well as the most comprehensive overhaul of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in the history of the agency. He co-authored the book: Hitler In The Crosshairs; and is the author of two non-fiction books: Everybody Pays: Two Men, One Murder and the Price of Truth and The Brown's Chicken Massacre. Today we will be discussing his upcoming book, Conviction at Any Price. (Recorded 03/19/2020)
