Why don't all department heads meet in front of a review board of their PEERS and other educated and experienced professionals in their field? The Board of Supervisors wouldn't know a good defense attorney if it bit them.... oh unless they're getting your kids out of jail. How soon they forget. It all sounds like a self-review...Make self serving and unverfied claims of what you've accomplished and walk out with a pat on the head and a preprinted letter of support from the Board of Supervisors about how they stand behind their appointment. I have no confidence the Board of Supervisors will ever do anything to support our marginalized community.
Re: “Judge Cuts to the Chase in Public Defender Lawsuit”
The man has no conscious. He is a great pretender. He puppets everyone's advice as if it were his own and then runs with it. He lacks even the most basic knowledge of criminal defense. It is truly pitiful that he is dragging the office down. He kisses the arses of the Supes who are either could care less about PD clients and the constitution or who are too ignorant to realize they have no clue what a PD requires.
