Politics of Justice: Who Absorbs the Damage?

In this episode of Politics of Justice, I dig into Chapters 30–38 of Judged, where the case stops being about facts and becomes about leverage. As pressure mounts, institutional self-protection begins to override truth, and the cost of dissent becomes clear. We see how credibility is managed, consequences are unevenly distributed, and silence is rewarded more than integrity. This episode explores how systems don’t need overt corruption to cause harm—only compliance, hierarchy, and the quiet expectation that some people absorb the damage so others can remain untouchable. Years ago, I tried to create a guide to the Casey Cort series—explaining what I was thinking as I wrote each scene, each chapter, each decision. The project collapsed under its own weight. I wasn’t ready to tell the deeper story yet. Now I am. The Politics of Justice goes beyond plot and into power: how justice actually works, who controls it, and why the outcomes so often feel uneven. Drawing from my background as an attorney and the fiction I’ve written over the last decade, this series explores the legal, political, and human forces shaping every case—on the page and in real life. This is the story behind the story. And it’s long overdue. Judged, the first book in the Casey Cort series, is currently free on all major ebook platforms. https://books2read.com/caseycort1 About Politics of Justice: Politics of Justice is a long-form video series where I revisit my novels and unpack the personal history, legal realities, and systemic issues woven into the fiction.
