Ready to get your true crime fix? In this multi part series, we're going back to where it all started for us, Ted Bundy.

In this second part in our series on the death penalty, we focus our conversation around the state of Florida. The "sunshine state" continues to expand its laws on capital punishment. As a result we ask ourselves how this could influence other states, impact laws and our everyday life. We hope that this topic pushes us to think critically on our society and what doors Floridian lawmakers are opening for those who are subject to it.

In this episode of Drinks with Defenders, we examine the case of Jamal Moore, breaking down the evidence, testimony, and legal decisions that led to his conviction. But this isn’t just about one case—we also dive into the broader issues that can undermine the integrity of convictions, including plea bargaining practices, prosecutorial misconduct, and systemic racism.

We’re not here to argue guilt or innocence—we’re here to ask tough questions and challenge the way we think about justice. Tune in as we explore how these factors shape outcomes in the criminal legal system and why critical thinking is essential in every case.
