Current State | 1/27/16 | Ep. 690

Today on Current State: reactions to Montgomery v. Louisiana from a prison reform expert and a victims' rights advocate; Volunteers of America Michigan gears up for their annual homeless count; organizations across the state team up to help Flint; and Detroit Free Press reporter John Carlisle tells us about the jam-making monks of the U.P.
