In today’s episode we have the privilege of interviewing Dr. Amos Guiora. Dr. Guiora is currently a distinguished professor of law at the University of Utah. He has written multiple books on the role bystanders and enablers play in crimes from a legal perspective. He is also a recipient of multiple books that were once in the possession of his grandparents who perished in the Holocaust.
