Attorney Tips FBI on APD DWI Corruption Case

New Mexico in Focus (A Production of NMPBS)

Lou DiVizio opens the show with several developing headlines from around the state including an update on the city of Albuquerque's handling of homeless encampments since a court injunction last year mandating the city not remove encampments on public property.

Then, Journalist Elise Kaplan of City Desk Albuquerque asks legal malpractice attorney and former state representative Daymon Ely about the information he passed along to federal agents from potential victims of an alleged scheme to get drunk driving cases tossed out of court. Also, Ely comments on how the case has harmed public trust in the legal system.
