In a new report, the ACLU of Ohio finds Ohio’s mayor's courts lack transparency and are “geared toward making money rather than delivering justice.”
Instead, the report said, mayor’s courts tend to target out-of-towners and disproportionately affect people of color.
Today on All Sides, the history of mayor’s courts and how they operate today.
Guests:
- Sri Thakillapati, Senior Policy Researcher, American Civil Liberties Union
- Kent Scarrett, Executive Director, Ohio Municipal League
