This podcast has everything: sassy judges, cults, identity fraud, too much Fireball, the oxford comma, and the Five-Year-Old Smackdown, which is that thing where a little kid pulls the chair out from under his aunt during a family reunion.

Bonus: Happy Birthday Annelise! (People v. Knoller)
Content warning: this episode contains mentions of grievous bodily harm.
Hello drunk law students! We are back to bring you a special episode from the DLS archive--featuring a special guest, terrible birthday singing, legal malfeasance, a highly questionable adoption, and yes, man-eating dogs (https://i.redd.it/38vzl6e8oii41.jpg). This episode was recorded in May 2020. Enjoy!

Whipple's partner, Sharon Smith, also succeeded in suing Knoller and Noel for $1,500,000 in civil damages. The civil case was notable in that the San Francisco Superior Court ruled in July 2001 that Smith was entitled to bring suit as Whipple's domestic partner (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_partnership_in_California) under the Equal Protection Clause, against the defense's argument that a same-sex unmarried partner did not have standing. She donated some of the money to Saint Mary's College of California (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Mary%27s_College_of_California) to fund the women's lacrosse team (where Whipple coached before her death).

Dolly, Get Your Bag! (Filartiga v. Peña-Irala)
What do you do if after fleeing from an oppressive regime in your home country of Paraguay and coming to the United States for a better life, you discover that the former head of the police force—a man who tortured and murdered your brother for political dissidence—had also fled to the U.S.A.? You dust off a two hundred year old law about piracy and GET. YOUR. BAG.
