Investigative journalists <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mandy_matney/">Mandy Matney</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/elizfarrell">Liz Farrell</a> and attorney <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theericblandbr/">Eric Bland</a> are examining how Cardi B. has been schooling the courtroom on authenticity, Russell Laffitte stalls his way through justice.  Cardi B’s testimony in California shows how authenticity and honesty can make a witness credible, even when the stakes are high. Contrast that with South Carolina’s Russell Laffitte, whose plea and sentencing delays reflect a system that bends for the well-connected
We also touch on how JP Miller’s courtroom stunts might seem laughable, but they’re a distraction from the real harm caused when predators use legal loopholes to protect themselves. Plus, in Texas, the family of Christa Bauer Gilley is still fighting for justice after her suspicious death was nearly written off as a suicide. 
These cases may span celebrities, bankers, and grieving families, but the thread is the same: victims deserve better, and the truth deserves sunlight.
