Chapter 135: Felony Review-Tales of True Crime & Corruption in Chicago w/ Randy Barnett

Today, I sat down with Randy Barnett, professor of Constitutional Law at the Georgetown University Law Center, Director of the Georgetown Center for the Constitution and former prosecutor for the City of Chicago. He joins me to tell me all about his latest book, Felony Review: Tales of True Crime and Corruption that gives a behind the scenes look at what it was like to work in the thick of the violence and corruption running rampant in 1970s and 1980s Chicago. 

Randy Barnett walked me through his time in the Felony Review Unit, the violent cases he worked on, and why exactly are some people so willing to spill it all to the police. Whether you love true crime, want to be a lawyer, or are currently studying law, this book, and this conversation, are for you.
