When Systems Fail: Culpability on Trial (With Jodi Tovay, Dennis Cooper, and Jaime Albright)

About this episode

The episode discusses culpability and systemic failures in mental health and justice systems with guests Jodi Tovay, Dennis Cooper, and Jaime Albright.

Live from the TenderfootTV booth at CrimeCon – Jodi Tovay (Wisecrack) and Dennis Cooper (Culpable) sit down with Producer Jaime Albright to discuss the central theme of culpability and explore its intricate layers that extend beyond guilt and innocence.  Join them as they pull back the curtain on how systemic failures, particularly within mental health treatment and the justice system, often fuel tragedy and ultimately shape, or hinder, how a case is covered and resolved.
