The exoneration of Ricky Kidd, a wrongly convicted man in Missouri who

spent more than two decades in prison, highlights major problems with U.S.

criminal justice. As covered in our Broken Justice podcast, Kidd was freed

largely due to pro bono legal efforts. Kidd and attorney Sean O’Brien join

Amna Nawaz to discuss the overburdened public defender system and how Kidd

is turning anger to action.
