Monday Morning Jumpstart
Nov 17th
Just a few things you should read this morning:
- In light of my recent post about the plight of pd systems, Scott writes a stirring tribute to the public defender and hidden in that is a call to arms for every other lawyer. More on that, and my own thoughts, later.
- The Courant reports on this new ACLU study which finds that – surprise! – minority kids are arrested more than white kids. Definitely some more on this later.
- On the DNA front: 6 exonerations in NE and unreported DNA in a Baltimore case casts doubt on conviction
- The Lori Drew trial has taken some odd turns: yes suicide, no suicide, yes!
That’s it. Now get to work!
