"Standing Up For Shona Banda" on "I Take LIBERTY With My Coffee"

In March, Child Protective Service workers took Shona Banda’s 11-year-old son from her home, saying her use of medical marijuana put the child in danger. Last Friday Shona was charged with five felony counts of possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, manufacturing Tetrahydrocannabinol, two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia and one count of child endangerment. Banda faces a maximum of 30 years in prison. Attorney Sarah Swain joins me again to discuss the charges and the burden of proof the State must meet. Sarah is a serious advocate who has always questioned the fairness of our justice system. She saw her father, a war hero, disabled during the Vietnam War, along with many other veterans, get taken advantage of by the U.S. government and the Veteran’s Administration, twisting the system to prevent him from getting representation for his disability benefits, which were his rights. Her father taught her, as he struggled against a seemingly unbeatable opponent, to defy all odds to achieve the results you believe in. He eventually beat the system by representing himself and won. This invaluable lesson and a tough childhood fueled her passion for seeking justice. Shona is represented well. So grab a cup of coffee and join us.
