it would be really stupid if there's absolutely nothing you could do about this obvious, egregious

violation of someone's rights.

The officer is shouting, don't fucking move, shoots into the car twice, unable to see inside.

Barnes manages to stop the car.

He later dies on the scene.

And the grand jury declined to bring criminal charges.

Hello and welcome to opening arguments.

This is episode 1230. And a bit of a switch up. Normally we do the

YouTube videos on Wednesdays. This week though, I mentioned last time I was thinking of recording

serious inquiries only on the Alex Preti murder and I did and it ended up being, I did it on video

on the YouTube if you'd like to watch

or on serious inquiries only if you'd like to listen. But it ended up being very long, nearly

two hours, I think two hours and 40 minutes of video on the YouTube. So we figured, why don't we

just let that be the video content for this week? Also, Matt's got an interesting scheduling

thing coming that actually might work to our advantage. He's going to be taking a little trip and we might get some coverage out of it. So all that is to say, we're just going to give you that part two of qualified immunity and all the other immunities today, which is great. I didn't want you guys to have to wait a week. That was a bummer. I'm glad that it's kind of working out that this will be the

best of all worlds. So that's what we're going to do today. Part two, we get into more cases,

a little bit of debunking of some misinformation, and we'll finish out Janessa's comprehensive

course on the tangled web of immunities that stands between us and accountability a lot of the time. All right, thanks so much

for listening. We'll get on over to Janessa. Janessa, how are you doing? I am doing so different

from the last time we talked. Yeah, real live attorney and first, a winner of the first place

prize of guests, the case thing you described in your class.

What was that?
