It’s Sine Die, the last day of this year’s General Assembly session. What have your lawmakers accomplished? What’s left for the last hours? WYPR statehouse reporter Christopher Connelly and senior news analyst Fraser Smith are here.

Then, when Darius Clark Monroe was 16, he robbed a bank with two friends. He was caught and served three years in prison. Years later, with a film camera in-hand, he returned to the scene to explore why he did what he did. We talk with him.
