Legal experts share their perspectives on the expungement process.
In this episode, we're talking about criminal records – or at least, how to get rid of them. In the U.S. approximately 1/3 of all people have a criminal record. Having a criminal record can affect one's job, professional licensing, ability to get housing or government benefits and much more.
While legal aid helps many navigate the, often difficult, process clearing their criminal record, the problem is larger than their capacity. In this episode, host Jason Tashea sits down with legal experts to discuss how technology and policy are changing the ways these records impact peoples lives and how the government can better operate - giving people a second chance.
Legal Experts: Yousef Kassim, founder and CEO of EasyExpunctions, Sarah Esther Lageson, associate professor at Rutgers University-Newark School of Criminal Justice, and Noella Sudbury, founder and CEO of Rasa Public Benefit Corporation.
