Just Legal History

Michael Ely

I explore popular cases that are going on now and talk about legal issues. I break my show into three areas: current case breakdown, weekly summaries of things happening, and then long form talks with guests on cases and legal items.

    Dangerous Activities Liability.

    I talk with Brett from the Prosecutors about liability in different dangerous activities. Do you always lose your ability to sue if you are engaged in a dangerous activity? Can you be sued? And could your conduct raise to the point where you can be charged criminally. Listen to me and Brett talk about some of these issues.

    How does media influence our view of True Crime

    I talk with writer and creator Allison Dickson about how the media influences how we view True Crime. We watch shows like CSI or Bones and watch cop and legal shows. Now we consume podcasts and other documentaries. So the question I ask along with others, is do we get an unrealistic view from media about what actually happens in police investigations and then once it goes to trial.
