Vinnie Politan on what makes a case a national obsession
Show notes
After decades covering the country's most closely watched trials, from Scott Peterson and Casey Anthony to Alex Murdaugh and Johnny Depp, Vinnie Politan has a front-row view of how the public, the press and juries see law enforcement.
He joins host Jim Dudley on Policing Matters to talk about his new YouTube-first video podcast, “Vinnie Politan Investigates,” and what he has learned about why some cases capture the public's attention while most never do. Along the way, he explains how skepticism toward institutions has changed what happens in the jury box.
