Hour 3: The Murder-Ready Headshot | 01-08-26

Lionel dives into the legal and ethical complexities of a recent ICE agent shooting in Minneapolis, debating the “split-second” decisions of law enforcement and the standard of reasonableness in the face of perceived threats. The conversation shifts from high-stakes federal protocol to the lighter—but no less dramatic—realities of the courtroom, including the hilarity of misunderstood pleas like “no conscience” and the dread of being swallowed by a federal grand jury. Between analyzing “eggshell plaintiffs” and the importance of having a professional-grade photo ready for your own obituary, Lionel offers an entertaining mix of legal sagacity and biting wit.
