Jaws of Justice Radio
It is the intention of Jaws of Justice Radio to investigate how to achieve justice in America, this includes issues of economic injustice, political injustice and the criminal justice system. We want to put a human face on those caught in the grasp of injustice and those that are part of an unjust system. We strive to dispel the misconceptions created by the news and entertainment industry, politicians and our educational system.
Is Execution By Drones Really Legal? Is it Ethical?
While most Americans accept the targeting of terrorist chosen by the President for execution, many legal scholars have been pointing out drone attacks are not only illegal, but immoral. Many others are saying the “collateral damage” of many more innocent people killed than terrorists is just creating more terrorists and making us less safe. I mean really would we be willing to let our death row inmates loose and then execute them by drone attack on the streets of America?
Host Margot Patterson talks with Professor Marjorie Cohn, of Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego, California. Professor Cohn has written extensively on conditions in US prisons, torture conducted by our government here and abroad and is now taking on the many issues raised by drones.
