Justice Unraveled

Justice Unraveled is a podcast created and hosted by Luis Armando Arias, Assistant Professor of Practice in the Department of Criminal Justice and Security Studies at The University of Texas at El Paso, designed to educate and engage audiences through insightful discussions, expert interviews, and critical examination of issues within the criminal justice system. The podcast also serves as a pedagogical and artistic platform that promotes student participation, performance, and applied learning in a professional broadcast environment. Through faculty-guided mentorship, students gained experience in media literacy, oral presentation, and public scholarship while contributing to recorded dialogue and narrative storytelling.
