Cop Rape Case; Hotel Sexual Assault Case – & – Prison Book Program: Air Date 6/15/11

The crime news is hotter than the temperature these days and rumors are flying like kites in the breeze, so on the show this week, I talk with my favorite defense attorney David McGruder about the so-called “Cop Rape Case” involving two police officers who were acquitted of raping a young fashion executive DESPITE being convicted of offenses that resulted in ruining their police career and being kicked off the police force.

Elder Abuse Awareness Day – & – Internet Safety Month – & – Child Abuse Case: Air Date 6/01/11
