USF legal scholar previews new Supreme Court term

On today's show...

Another South Dakota politician is running for Dusty Johnson's seat in the U.S. House.

State Sen. Casey Crabtree is a conservative who says he's a close ally of President Donald Trump. He unpacks his legislative record and what he'd bring to Washington, D.C. (1:00-17:36).

Plus, the Supreme Court started its new term this month and has already heard several arguments.

We turn to our judicial guide, Mike Thompson, J.D. He is an associate professor of criminal justice at the University of Sioux Falls.

He covers cases that present legal questions related to the Sixth Amendment, conversion therapy, the emergency aid exception and laws impacting transgender athletes (17:36-49:23).
