Bonus episode of For the Defense: Hank Asbill for Gov. Bob McDonnell


Today, we released a bonus episode of For the Defense, in which I interview Hank Asbill (left in the picture below) about his representation of Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (right).

This episode was recorded during my White Collar Law class at the University of Miami School of Law and at the end, you’ll hear questions from the students.

You can catch this episode and all episodes on our podcast website here. The Apple platform is available here, and all other platforms can be accessed here.

Thanks again for your feedback on Season 1. For the Florida lawyers who are listening, you can obtain CLE credit for listening to Season 1. Once you finish listening to the whole season, just shoot me an email, and I will send you the course number. In addition, this bonus episode has been approved for 1.5 hours of Florida CLE credit. After you listen, just email me for the separate course number.

We are preparing Season 2 now, and we are planning on launching in mid-January. The first episode of S2 will be with Alan Dershowitz on the OJ Simpson trial. I think you’ll find it very interesting.

Thank you! This was very fun to listen to.

I was wondering whether you have read Jesse Eisinger's book, The Chickenshit Club: Why the Justice Department Fails to Prosecute Executives, or have any opinions on it. The book suggests that the DoJ does not prosecute a number of white collar crimes that it should, in particular because officials in DoJ usually end up working for the law firms that specialize in representing white collar crime.

PS: Is there more to the story of your Turkish client or did I get the wrong impression?
