Joe & Rya TAKE FIVE: She Followed the Law. It Almost Put Her In Jail.

Season 4 Published 4 months ago
Description

Kris Ripper changed the gender marker on her license because Kansas law required it. Then a rainy night traffic stop over her headlights turned into a ten minute interrogation and the threat of jail time, all for doing exactly what the state told her to. Joe and Rya trace how a law sold as making IDs accurate for police did the exact opposite the first time it met the real world, and ask the question underneath it: what are these laws actually protecting when obeying them is what puts you in danger?
