This comes after the release of a YouTube video where Cardosa is confronted over the phone by a young woman who says she was sexually abused by her years ago as one of her students at a Riverside middle school.
The video was viewed on YouTube over a million times in one week, and since its release, a second victim has come forward. Edward Imwinkelried, a professor at the UC Davis School of Law, joins the show to discuss the case.
