The Show spoke with Maricopa County Attorney Allister Adel on during its May 4. Adel had written an op-ed in the Arizona Republic criticizing some organizations who are advocating for a release of more inmates during the current pandemic for “exploiting a public health emergency to forward a political agenda.” Not all share Adel's position, however. The Show talked with Caroline Isaacs, the Arizona director of the American Friends Service Committee, who called Adel's op-ed "tone deaf."
