The nun from Dead Man Walking

We love doing episodes suggested by our listeners! Mel wrote to ask us to track down Sister Helen Prejean….a Catholic nun who has spent her life campaigning to scrap the death penalty. Sister Helen’s the nun from the Hollywood film, Dead Man Walking.

It took us four months, but we finally had a chance to sit down to talk with this remarkable woman. Sister Helen tells us why she took up her life-long campaign…..and why she believes President Joe Biden might just be the man to stop the death sentence, once and for all.

You’re going to love our chat with Sister Helen Prejean.
