Dr. Luke Hunt interviewed for article in “The New Republic”

Dr. Luke Hunt was interviewed for an article in The New Republic about the police’s use of informants.  The magazine piece examines cases in which the police use their leverage to get drug addicts to work as drug informants.  Hunt’s comments in the piece raise both procedural concerns about such cases (whether the informant had a “real choice” to work for the police), and substantive concerns (whether the police should subject informants to the risk of significant harm).
