An Oakland jury has found former Your Black Muslim Bakery leader Yusef Bey IV guilty of murdering journalist Chauncey Bailey and two other men in 2007. Bakery associate Antoine Mackey was convicted of two counts of first degree murder, but jurors deadlocked on the third count. The prosecutor had argued that Bey ordered the killing to keep Bailey from exposing the bakery’s financial problems.

Guests:

Peter Keane, dean emeritus and professor of law at Golden Gate University Law School

Thomas Peele, investigative reporter for the Bay Area News Group and participant in the Chauncey Bailey Project
