Description

In this week's ITT Sound Off, Maria and Julio give us an update on the remaining candidates of the presidential race. Policing and criminal justice were major topics in today's conversation which include Amy Klobuchar's past as a prosecutor and Mike Bloomberg's failed Stop-and-Frisk program. They also talk about how all four federal prosecutors resigned from Roger Stone's case after the decision to reduce his sentence was made.
