Public Defenseless explores the rot in the justice system and what we can do about it. Join host, Hunter Parnell, as he interviews top defense attorneys and criminal justice stakeholders from across the country as they pull apart the convoluted web of our criminal justice system. Like so many of you, Hunter is not an attorney, simply tired of a news cycle and talking heads that offer no real solutions to the ever-growing list of problems we face. Hunter hopes that with this information, you will share his belief that ordinary people still can make a difference.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-25T22:17:22.371695+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/public-defenseless-4627959"},"episode":{"title":"471 | The Science of Second Chances w/Jennifer Doleac","slug":"471-the-science-of-second-chances-w-jennifer-doleac","published_at":"2026-04-30T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/public-defenseless-4627959/471-the-science-of-second-chances-w-jennifer-doleac","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/public-defenseless-4627959","url":"https://publicdefenseless.libsyn.com/471-the-science-of-second-chances-wjennifer-doleac","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/publicdefenseless/Jennifer_Doleac_Final_Audio.mp3?dest-id=3187490","summary":"Today, Hunter was joined by Jennifer Doleac, Executive VP of Criminal Justice at Arnold Ventures and author of the book, The Science of Second Chances .
