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.
Eyewitness Accounts Of The Aftermath of the Michael Brown Shooting
The killing of an unarmed black teeager by a white officer in Ferguson has sparked almost two weeks of protest and daily clashes between the police and the protestors. This incident and the violence it has caused has drawn the attention of the world press and comparisons with clashes in other parts of the world.
Today hosts Keith Brown El and Allie Catherine Bush will talk with State Representative Brandon Ellington and former Criminal Defense Investigator Winifred Varner-Jamieson about what they saw when they went to Ferguson.
