About this listen

 In this episode, we bring you the disturbing story of St. Paul police officer Heather Weyker, whose lies led to the wrongful prosecution of dozens of people—and put an innocent teenage refugee in jail for two years. Will she ever be held accountable? Today we’re joined by IJ senior attorney Patrick Jaicomo, one of the leaders of IJ's Project on Immunity and Accountability. We’re discussing Patrick’s lawsuit against Officer Weyker, how courts have systematically closed doors to government accountability, and how IJ is trying to wrench those doors back open. https://youtu.be/rf_NetF2l9k Become a Monthly Donor Are you looking for a rewarding and consistent way to support IJ’s work?
