LAL #032 — The Legend of F. Lee Bailey: An Interview and a Reading

Law and Legitimacy

Episode 32 is special in more ways than one.

Last week, the world lost a titan of American jurisprudence and criminal advocacy, F. Lee Bailey. This episode is thus devoted entirely to the man and the legend F. Lee Bailey was and will forever be known to be.

We start with a reading from the Norm Pattis Blog, Farewell to a Legend: F. Lee Bailey, which Norm penned on June 2, 2021, just moments following the news of Lee's passing. Norm recounts the most visible parts of Lee's legacy, and goes further to illustrate the enduring personal relationship shared beginning with a client matter some twenty years ago.

To headline this episode, the wonderful people at The Kevin Alan Show were kind enough to allow Law and Legitimacy to redistribute the F. Lee Bailey interview as Norm conducted and hosted originally on The Kevin Alan Show platforms and channels. You can find the link to the original interview, which aired April 18, 2021, here. Please go subscribe to the Kevin Alan channel, turn on notifications, and thank the generous crew on behalf of Law and Legitimacy.

The interview is bursting at the seams with insights, spanning relevant topics such as the Derek Chauvin trial and conviction as well as more storied subjects such as the O.J. Simpson trial. As for the latter, the tremendous loss of F. Lee Bailey is punctuated by the fact that his newest book, "The Truth About the O.J. Simpson Trial: By the Architect of the Defense", is scheduled to release just days from now, on June 15, 2021. Norm and Lee tease some of the lesser known but material aspects of the O.J. trial and Lee's book in this interview.

Listen and enjoy.
