    We apologize for being tardy (again).

    In this episode, Rachel discusses the possible (likely?) repercussions of the decision of Grants Pass Oregon v. Johnson and our criminalization of homelessness. There's no missing persons case this time.

    Our next book is "Little, Crazy Children: A True Crime Tragedy of Lost Innocence" by James Renner, which we will discuss in episode 24.
