Elizabeth Kim, the President of the Sacramento Branch of the National Lawyer’s Guild, talks about her arrest at the age of 19 for a small quantity of marijuana, how that turned into a felony drug conviction, and how she continues to pay for that crime even 15 years later as she has become an attorney and moved on with her life.
She also talked about her work with the National Lawyer’s Guild and the Stephon Clark case, and the lack of accountability for police and prosecutors in the current criminal justice system.
