Gun violence, snitching, the "137 shots" case, Steve Loomis and history of the CPPA in Cleveland, and the the difficulty of reporting in a city where officials won't talk "on the record": there's A LOT to talk about in episodes 3 and 4 of Serial season 3.
We talk it out with Rachel Dissell, reporter for The Plain Dealer, Andrea Whitaker, criminal defense attorney, and attorney Rebecca Maurer, author of the "SerialLand" blog where she seeks to add some context and history to each episode of Serial this season.
Hosted by ideastream’s Elizabeth Miller and Lawrence Daniel Caswell.
