Criminal law often deals with the darkest corners of human behavior, where lives are caught between justice, circumstance and unintended consequences.

In Episode 57 of The Human Thread, the conversation with Criminal Lawyer Gayatri Gokhale dives deep into the realities of crime, its motives and the profound human cost both for the accused and the victims.

This episode explores how:

• Some individuals navigate the system with impunity, while others are crushed by legal battles
• Broken homes and early trauma can influence future criminal behavior
• False implications and misunderstandings can derail lives for years
• Money, vengeance and psychological issues often underpin criminal actions
• The legal system’s delays and social biases affect both victims and the accused

The conversation is a reminder that law is not just about verdicts it’s about human lives caught in moments of crisis and that understanding context, patterns and consequences is critical to justice.
