Episode 28

Your phone can be your lifeline - or your downfall. From text messages and location data to social media posts and DMs, digital evidence has become one of the most powerful tools in modern criminal trials. But how reliable is it? And where do privacy and context fit into the equation?

In this Sidebar discussion, the panel breaks down the growing role of digital evidence in courtrooms: how prosecutors use it, how defense teams fight it, and how a single screenshot or status update can change the course of a case.
