Manage episode 297361566 series 2933352
Every now and then we interview criminal justice leaders and promote the good work they do, both on and off the court.
Deputy DA John Dunn is the author of the children's book "Boo and Ted's Amazing Adventures". Deputy DA Nicole Gerard is the author of the children's book "My Aunt is a Lawyer". This is second book in the series and follows "My Mom is a Lawyer" written by her sister Deputy DA Vanessa Gerard.

Each episode we examine the laws on the books; 3 are real and 1 is fake. Can you guess which law is the fake?
- Dr. Seuss Enterprises sought a preliminary injunction against a company that tried to publish a parody of the OJ Simpson trial, written in the style of Dr. Seuss.
- A California prison inmate, caught with numerous gang material, denied he was part of gang, saying he was just researching for a children’s book on how to stay away from gangs.
- A North Carolina man’s conviction for assault with a deadly weapon was upheld on appeal. The defendant was convicted after bludgeoning his wife with a children’s book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and the court said “when innocent objects are used in a deadly manner, such objects qualify as ‘deadly weapons’ under N.C. Gen. Stat. Ann. § § 14-32.”
- A woman in Louisiana unsuccessfully sued Wal-Mart for damages, claiming she was left bleeding and dizzy when shopping in the toy aisle and some children’s books fell on her head.
