214: Misprision

Jill Wine-Banks hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the arrest of Luigi Mangione in the murder of the UHC CEO, looking at the attempt to extradite him, the use of surveillance cameras to catch him, and the legal status of ghost guns similar to the one used in the crime. Then, the #Sisters explain clemency, contextualize its recent use by President Biden, and weigh its pros and cons. They also share their takes on Harmeet Dhillon’s appointment to the head of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, the importance of the FBI Director’s 10-year term, and the Inspector General.
