Descripción del Episodio

What are the police for? Producer B.A. Parker started wondering this back in June, as Black Lives Matter protests and calls to “defund the police” ramped up. The question led her to a wild story of a stabbing on a New York City subway train, and the realization that, according to the law, the police don’t always have to protect us. Producer Sarah Qari joins Parker to dig into the legal background, which takes her all the way up to the Supreme Court... and then all the way back down to on-duty officers themselves.

This episode contains strong language and graphic violence.

Reported and produced by B.A. Parker and Sarah Qari, and produced by Matt Kielty and Pat Walters.

Special thanks to April Hayes and Katia Maguire for their documentary Home Truth about Jessica Gonzales, Cracked.com for sending us down this rabbit hole, Caroline Bettinger-López, Geoff Grimwood, Christy Lopez, Anthony Herron, Mike Wells, and Keith Taylor.

Als inicis de la Guerra Civil, l'Arrabassada era l'indret per excel·lència on la CNT-FAI impartia la justícia revolucionària a Barcelona. Enguany, mentre els quillos hi derrapen amb els cotxes tunejats malgastant benzina, tres nois de Nou Barris recuperaran la tradició revolucionària de la carretera enviant els seus enemics a fer-hi un tomb a cada programa. Tot plegat mentre tracten els grans debats de l'actualitat en català i, evidentment, passant-se de frenada.
