The Kids of Rutherford County - Ep. 2

A young lawyer named Wes Clark can’t get the Rutherford County
juvenile court to let his clients out of detention — even when
the law says they shouldn’t have been held in the first place.
He’s frustrated and demoralized, until he makes a friend. 


From Serial Productions and The New York Times in partnership
with ProPublica and Nashville Public Radio, “The Kids of
Rutherford County” is reported and hosted by Meribah Knight, a
Peabody-award winning reporter based in the South.
