For your long weekend listening - a new JustPod episode on Habeas Challenges to the Death Penalty.

A death sentence isn’t the end of the case - it's the beginning of some of the most critical legal work. Habeas attorneys step in years later to investigate constitutional violations, examine what was missed, and ensure the system delivered justice.

In this episode of JustPod, John Hutchins discusses his years representing people on death row and his work with the ABA Death Penalty Representation Project to improve the quality of counsel in capital cases.

Tune in to learn more about the high‑stakes world of post‑conviction advocacy.
