Current Events July 2026

In the July 2026 Current Events breakdown, I tackle a month of massive contrasts in the criminal justice system. From a staggering circumstantial conviction to a monumental victory for constitutional rights. First, I break down the People v. Larry Millete and how an eight-week trial with no body, no murder weapon, and no physical evidence resulted in a first-degree murder conviction in under seven hours. We discuss the dangerous line between convicting someone for toxic behavior and actually proving a case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Then, we pivot to a massive systemic win out of the New Mexico Supreme Court in State v. Causey. We unpack how the court shut down "evidence laundering" across state lines, forcing law enforcement to respect strict constitutional boundaries.
