In this episode of the iChange Justice podcast, host Joy Gilfilen explores the hidden world of financial markets and their connection to our justice system. She interviews a Wall Street bond trader to uncover how arrests are transformed into financial assets that are traded on the stock market.
This episode sheds light on the complex and often invisible ways that money influences our justice system. Gilfilen highlights the lack of transparency in the process, where people working within the system often don't understand the bigger picture.
The podcast follows the journey of a case, from a 911 call to a bond posted for bail, ultimately becoming part of a financial package traded on Wall Street. This raises important questions about the impact this system has on our communities and how it can become obscure and disconnected from the people it affects.
