Show Notes
What happens when privilege gets away with murder? Jessica Lal's case shocked India.
In Episode 21, we explore the heartbreaking murder of Jessica Lal, an innocent woman working as a bartender in India, a crime that laid bare the deep-seated problems within the country's justice system. As we delve into the events leading to her death and the trial that followed, we examine the societal upheaval and mass protests that demanded justice.
What should have been an open-and-shut case became a symbol of privilege and corruption. Despite overwhelming evidence, why did it seem almost impossible to convict the perpetrator? Was justice truly served?
