Episode description
Jonny is joined by Craig to discuss, in the wake of the announced retirement of Supreme Court Justice Kennedy, two court cases that demonstrate the persistent and systemic vulnerability of LGBTQ+ people in the legal system. Case 1: the SCOTUS refusal to hear the appeal of Charles Rhines, who was sentenced to death because the jury felt as a gay man prison wouldn't be enough of a punishment. Case 2: the murder of 10 year old Anthony Avalos by his parents after he told them he "liked boys."
