Old Threats and New: ISIS and 764

Erin sits down with Seamus Hughes, NCITE senior research faculty and policy associate, to discuss domestic prosecution and sentencing of members of ISIS and the group 764. A nationally recognized expert in the U.S. federal court search system, PACER, Hughes founded and runs the website Court Watch, which provides analysis of federal court filings, search warrants, and indictments. In 2022, he was a part of a New York Times team that won the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for their reporting on law enforcement in America.

This podcast was recorded at 9am on Thursday, May 8.
