With eye on the courts, Amy Walsh Kern takes the reins at WATCH MN

Founded in Minneapolis in 1992, the non-profit monitors the treatment of women and children in domestic abuse and sex trafficking cases.

Kern joins The Daily Circuit to talk about why it's important to keep a close eye on the courts and what she hopes to accomplish in her new role.
