In this excerpt from the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance break down the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos are children under state law, and individuals may be held liable for destroying them.
In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss the latest developments in former President Donald Trump’s criminal prosecutions:
– Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s request for a partial gag order against Trump in the hush money prosecution, citing his history of attacking those involved in legal proceedings against him; and
– Trump’s motions to dismiss the Mar-a-Lago documents charges, based on the Presidential Records Act and presidential immunity, in addition to challenging special counsel Jack Smith’s appointment.
