This American Life: The Right to Remain Silent



Halloween weekend is upon us and there is no doubt in my mind that you will hear about someone being in a situation that involves the 5-0. Yeah that's right we are talking about the Police. When the final pumpkin has been smashed and you wake up to November, MY GOD THE YEAR IS ZIPPING BY!, you will have at least one connection to a police involvement.

*To the older generations: Just ask one of your grandchildren or kids form the neighborhood, this is no longer your Dad's Halloween. This generation likes to get down.

I am still a college student here in Boston, MA and mark my word, escalated police enforcement this weekend is a mortal lock, just like my NFL picks, you can take that to the bank.

So if you do get involved in some late night mischief and find yourself in a sticky situation remember your rights. I found a fun little podcast about two guys who fought against the law, and unlike The Clash they won. These two unique, engaging stories dive into the corruption at the police station and unlawful behavior by officers.

Don't Lose The Fight With The Law This Halloween Weekend
