Proud to be in Law School — The Truth Prevails

When I listened to this podcast, I couldn’t help but feel for this man and his family. 

When I heard about the lawyer who took this case, I became proud to be in law school.  For the fathers out there… try not to feel for this man.  

This audio is from the Lawyer to Lawyer weekly podcast.  Here’s a short description of what you’ll hear:

Joe Salvati of Boston spent nearly 30 years in prison as an innocent man, along with three other men, convicted for a murder they did not commit. After years of legal twists and some unbelievable turns, the Justice Department declined an appeal of a $101.7 million settlement for all four men. Attorney and co-host Bob Ambrogi welcomes Attorney Victor J. Garo, Joe Salvati’s lawyer for more than 30 years and Attorney and Journalist Dan Rea, to discuss one of the worst cases of injustice and wrongful imprisonment. They talk about Federal Judge Nancy Gertner’s ruling and her criticism of the FBI,  the power of the press, reaction to this bittersweet victory and fighting to the end for your client.
