Welcome to episode five of The Legal Watchdog Podcast.
In today's podcast we discuss a criminal defendant's right to testify at his own trial. Surprisingly -- or, for regular listeners and readers of The Dog, perhaps not so surprisingly -- this right is as easily violated as many of our other constitutional rights.
We spend the entire podcast discussing a single case: State v. Anthony. (However, near the end of the podcast, Matt does recite some very impressive and important language from another case, Wright v. Estelle.)
