A lot of requests for this one. The subject was the closing of the courthouse to the media and the public. We had on two guests. One was Peter Scheer, the executive director of the California First Amendment Coalition. The other was Natasha Mintzger, a Death Penalty Attorney from the ACLU in San Francisco. Mintzger was on the second half from the 35 minute mark until the end, and very interesting and engaging. A big thanks to Natalie Wormeli of the Yolo County Chapter of the ACLU for helping to set up the interview with Natasha Mintzger.
