KBOO FM’s Prison Pipeline Show Interview

Victoria Rusk was interviewed on the Prison Pipeline radio program on KBOO FM Oregon. dedicated to educating the public about the Oregon criminal justice system. Our goal is to present a unique understanding of the criminal justice system, address the root causes of crime, and challenge the status quo.

Rusk is the author of a new, easy-to-read book designed for both judges and attorneys as well as defendants. The Handbook for mitigation also explains the process of how to investigate, present, and use mitigating evidence in the justice system. “My goal is for mitigation investigation to be a part of all cases, not just felony cases, and death penalty cases. Mitigation is key to a fair trial and fair sentencing in our justice system – and more professional mitigation specialists are needed in America,” says Rusk.
