Davie Hinshaw

Charlotte Observer

Scott Broyles is a former federal prosecutor, serving as an assistant U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. These days, he's a law professor at the Charlotte School of Law with an emphasis on criminal and constitutional law. We asked his opinion and observations of Monday's opening arguments in the Randall Kerrick police shooting trial. He spoke to WFAE's All Thing Considered host, Mark Rumsey.

Mark Rumsey grew up in Kansas and got his first radio job at age 17 in the town of Abilene, where he announced easy-listening music played from vinyl record albums.
