    May 3 2026
    Investigate the case of Christina Marie Chapman, who operated a “laptop farm” from her homes in Minnesota and Arizona, enabling North Korean IT operatives to steal U.S. identities, secure remote jobs at over 300 American companies, and generate more than $17 million for the DPRK regime.

  • The Duty of Candor in the Age of AI: The Greg Lake Suspension

    The Duty of Candor in the Age of AI: The Greg Lake Suspension
    Apr 26 2026
    In April 2026, the Nebraska Supreme Court issued a landmark indefinite suspension against attorney Greg Lake, marking a shift from mere financial sanctions to career-altering discipline for AI misuse. This episode deconstructs the "Failure of Candor" that led to his downfall. We move past the 57 hallucinated citations to the courtroom confrontation where Lake initially blamed a broken computer and a wedding anniversary for the errors. We discuss why the court found his explanation "lacked credibility" and what this means for the Model Rules of Professional Conduct in a world where AI-generated fabrications are becoming a weekly occurrence in the docket

  • The Right to Refuse Treatment – Riggins v. Nevada (1992)

    The Right to Refuse Treatment – Riggins v. Nevada (1992)
    Apr 21 2026
    In this episode, we examine Riggins v. Nevada (1992), a landmark Supreme Court case addressing whether the state can forcibly administer antipsychotic medication to a criminal defendant awaiting trial. The Court ruled that while forced medication is not categorically prohibited, the state must demonstrate it is medically appropriate and the least restrictive means of achieving competency for trial. The decision protects the defendant’s due process rights and the integrity of the adversarial process by ensuring a defendant can present a defense as themselves, not as a pharmacologically altered version shaped by the state.
