Joining us on the show first of all we had Monique Huley Associate Legal Director and Sohini Mehta Senior Lawyer from the Human Rights law centre, who discussed the proposed Adult Time for Violent Crime Bill and how this undermines Victoria's human rights obligations both under international law and Victoria's own Charter of Human Rights — which provides that children should be treated in an age-appropriate way. 

Then, Marisa interviewed Karen Fletcher CEO of flat out which is an independent, not for profit, community-based organisation that aims to prevent women and trans and gender-diverse people from entering and returning to prison. Karen gave an update on the recent Housing that was organised, and also speaked about the work of Flat out, focusing on criminalised women. Every woman, trans and gender diverse person deserves to live a life free from trauma, injustice and violencelence.

Finally, Marisa interviewed Lee Carnie ceo from Zerthlaw who gave some more background about the Victorian Government's proposed overhaul of the youth justice system, describing it as rushed, punitive, and dangerously out of step with evidence-based approaches to reducing youth crime.
