Guest: Professor Nina Kohn, law professor at Syracuse University and expert on elder law and conservatorships

Today on "This Matters," we take a look at exactly how conservatorships work in the U.S. and whether a pop icon's cry for help has started an important national conversation on the need for reform on conservatorship laws.
