Today's Verdict, 4/19/25

Coming up on this Edition of Today’s Verdict, a new experiment inside Manhattan’s Criminal Courthouse is changing what happens after an arrest. Navigators are stepping in right after arraignment—offering food, clothing, even housing—thanks to a unique partnership aimed at preventing repeat crime. Could this courtroom program be the key to keeping people on track? Finally, ICE agents are returning to Rikers Island—but not everyone’s on board. A new executive order from the Adams administration is opening the jail’s doors to federal immigration agents, sparking backlash from city leaders and raising civil rights concerns.  Council Member Aviles is interviewed.  The show is now online.  Keep the requests for topics coming.
