Arkansas Times' Week in Review January 5th, 2024
Manage episode 393842550 series 2616487
In this week’s podcast, Benji and investigative reporter Matt Campbell take a deep dive (probably too deep) into the tangled dispute between the state Board of Corrections and the governor, attorney general and secretary of corrections. Debra Hale-Shelton updates us on the case of Deitric Williams Jr., a 26-year-old Black man who died while being arrested by Conway police in July. And, Mary Hennigan catches us up again on the Little Rock city beat with a review of 2023’s homicide numbers and the latest from the Metropolitan Housing Alliance court case.
Among the stories referenced in this episode:
Corrections secretary to remain under control of board, not governor, at least for now
