OJ Simpson: A Look Back Before His Parole Hearing

In December 2012, 18-year-old Jerrod Murray was arrested and charged with the murder of 18-year-old Generro Sanchez, a fellow college student. In a chilling interrogation, Jerrod matter-of-factly describes the murder and when asked if he has any remorse, he says no. But would the laws in Oklahoma make it easy for Jerrod to not face responsibility for what he did?   In the episode, I speak with Generro's mom, Jeana, who talks about what happened to her son, and what she and her family are still dealing with today.   Sponsors in this episode: KATANA Safety - The first and only personal safety device that attaches to your smartphone, KATANA is monitored by a 24/7 Response Center and an app that alerts seven of your loved ones.

Deputies responded to a fraternity house on the Stanford campus and found an unresponsive woman who had been sexually assaulted, lying on the ground outside, behind a dumpster. The suspect was a freshman at Stanford, and the trial and sentencing that followed would make national news.   I spoke with Professor Michele Dauber, a law professor at Stanford, for this episode. You can follow Professor Dauber on Twitter @mldauber.   For more information on what's next for Professor Dauber's campaign, please visit enoughisenoughvoter.org or follow them on Twitter @enoughvoter.
