DPIC Executive Director Robert Dunham appeared on the July 16, 2021 episode of [*New Generation*, a podcast produced by the *Sharon (Pennsylvania) Herald*](https://www.sharonherald.com/podcast/episode-16-crime-of-punishment-part-ii/audio_4b4c0d8e-e65d-11eb-8d2f-0f20f88d7fab.html), in connection with the newspaper’s *Crime of Punishment* editorial series.
