Protesters arrested during last summer’s pro-Palestinian demonstrations at the Democratic National Convention are still facing prosecution from the city’s law department. Some legal experts have called it a “waste of resources” as the city has not won any cases that have gone to trial. Executive producer Simone Alicea and host Jacoby Cochran discuss the ongoing court battles. Plus, why aren’t e-scooters available after midnight and would you take a Great Lakes cruise?
