What the Racial Justice Act does

The family accused of killing a 3-year-old girl during an exorcism are now claiming the assault case should be thrown out. Claudia Elisa Hernandez, her brother Aaron and her father Rene are invoking California's Racial Justice Act, arguing that prosecutors and police have a bias against their religious faith, ethnicity, and national origin. Civil Rights Attorney Joe Richardson joins Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber to break down the defense's controversial argument, the shocking details from court documents, and why this case could set a massive legal precedent.
