Marlene Goldenberg leads an unprecedented legal battle to bring her clients, former U.S. hostages of Hamas, justice against the cryptocurrency platform Binance, which knowingly allowed terrorist funding on its platform for years leading up to the attacks.

Episode 16: Dublin Prison Abuse with Jessica Pride

Season 3 of Cases 4 Causes kicks off with a powerful episode featuring Jessica Pride of The Pride Law Firm, and your host, Landon Harlan. Jessica played a leading role in the litigation that exposed rampant staff-on-inmate sexual abuse at the now-shuttered Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Dublin, a federal women’s prison. Once known by inmates as the “rape club,” FCI Dublin was permanently closed by the Bureau of Prisons following years of abuse, mismanagement, and a scathing internal investigation. The federal government ultimately agreed to a nearly $116 million settlement for more than 100 survivors. In this episode, we discuss: 1. The landmark settlement 2. The PREA (Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003) audit process 3. What to do if someone you know is incarcerated and experiencing abuse 4. How similar patterns of institutional abuse appear in massage parlors, schools, and psychiatric hospitals This conversation sheds light on systems that fail to protect the vulnerable—and the legal pathways being carved to change that.

Episode 15: Police and Jail Misconduct with Sam Harton

Sam Harton, a civil rights attorney, discusses the importance of recognizing the humanity of incarcerated individuals and the need for a shift in society's perception of them. She emphasizes that incarcerated individuals have their own life stories and constitutional rights, and should not be reduced to labels such as criminals or drug addicts. Harton also discusses the types of misconduct that can occur in police and jail settings, including the use of excessive force and failure to provide medical care. She explains the legal basis for pursuing claims of misconduct, such as violations of the Fourth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments. Harton also shares her personal journey into civil rights work and highlights the significance of building relationships with incarcerated individuals. She discusses a specific case involving the death of a 16-year-old girl in a juvenile detention facility, which highlights both the systemic failures of the correctional system and the importance of recognizing the humanity of those impacted by it. The case is ongoing, and Harton encourages listeners to follow its progress. Find Sam Harton on Instagram @funclesam_

Episode 14: The Dangers of Suboxone with Jessica Wieczorkiewicz

On this episode of Cases 4 Causes, Jessica Wieczorkiewicz, an attorney from the Wallace Miller Law Firm in Chicago, discusses the dangers surrounding Suboxone film, an oral medication for opioid addiction. The film, which is inserted into the mouth and left to dissolve for 10 to 20 minutes, exposes the mouth to acidic substances that cause erosion and decay. The manufacturers of Suboxone film updated the prescribing information in June 2022 to include the association between the film and dental damage. Jessica’s legal career began in professional liability, specifically medical negligence where she represented healthcare networks, physicians and nurses throughout the litigation process. Today, she stands as a fierce ally for plaintiffs fighting against corporate giants, working to hold medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturers accountable. Her caseload spans critical battles and her primary focus these days is on Suboxone, Paraquat and Camp Lejeune, while also wrapping up settlement administration and 3M earplugs and Juul.
