About this listen

Host Miles Mercer examines how Augusto Pinochet's 1998 London arrest and subsequent release transformed international law. Though the Chilean dictator escaped trial, his case established universal jurisdiction for crimes against humanity, enabling prosecutions from Chad's Hissène Habré to Syrian officials. The episode explores how Pinochet's legal precedent created lasting accountability mechanisms that continue reshaping how the world prosecutes former heads of state for atrocities.
