Through his unique experiences as a prosecutor, defendant, and observer, Paul Butler critiques the criminal justice system, focusing on discriminatory drug laws and the issues of mass incarceration. He advocates for jury nullification as a means for citizens to oppose unjust laws and critiques the reliance on informants, which he believes fosters distrust in communities. Additionally, Butler introduces a "hip hop theory of justice," exploring insights from urban music and culture regarding crime and punishment. His arguments are both provocative and thought-provoking.
