podcast with boyland
“Welcome to ‘The Politically Social’ with Afia Sengupta. Today, we have an insightful interview with William F. Boyland Jr., a former New York State Assemblyman and a resilient advocate for justice. Boyland served in the Assembly representing Brooklyn, focusing on issues impacting his community. In 2021, he faced federal charges related to bribery and fraud, leading to a conviction that he contested, claiming a lack of evidence and inadequate legal representation.
Despite these challenges, Boyland remains committed to advocating for reform within the legal system. He has been actively involved in addressing the systemic loopholes that affect individuals accused of corruption and is on President Biden’s clemency list. Today, we will explore his experiences, insights into the justice system, and a personal journey that sheds light on the complexities of facing legal challenges as a public figure. Join us as we dive into an inspiring conversation with William F. Boyland Jr.”
