Recent Episodes of the Scott Horton Show

2/4/21 Jim Bovard on the Official Whitewash of the Killing of Duncan Lemp

Jim Bovard is back to discuss the tragic killing of Duncan Lemp, a Maryland man who was shot by police during a no-knock SWAT raid last year. Bovard has been covering the details of Lemp’s story ever since, including the ways that the police department’s story keeps changing and the fact that there’s no body cam footage to verify what happened. Bovard stresses that no-knock raids are complete overkill in almost all cases, and they only lead to senseless killings like this one. He and Scott also discuss many similar cases in recent American history, all of which highlight the need for a reform of the way policing is done in this country.

Discussed on the show:

  • “The Official Whitewash of the Killing of Duncan Lemp” (The American Conservative)
  • “Police killing of Maryland man shows dangers of SWAT, no-knock raids” (USA Today)
