Today, Hunter was joined by three guests from Hennepin County's Adult Representation Services.

ARS was created to fill the gaps in the access to counsel to ensure people have a fighting chance in their civil legal issues.

Today, Hunter was joined by Journalist Dan Hinkel to discuss his newest piece about the Conviction Integrity Unit in Cook County.

Today, Hunter was joined by Professor Shira Diner to discuss the Bar Advocate work stoppage in the state of Massachusetts. Back in May, the Bar Advocates, the private defense lawyers who handle 80% of Massachusetts's public defender workload, stopped taking new cases due to the incredibly low hourly rate they are paid. Since then, thousands of people have been left without representation as the courts have been unable to assign cases to attorneys. Now the question is, where does the state go from here?

This is an excellent episode There were so many valid points discussed. There is a formula the ADAs use to get convictions, and they use it over and over again. In addition, if a defendant doesn't break under pressure and take a plea, the ADA takes it personally. Prosecutors fraternize with the judges.. Serious misconduct unravels during trial, and the judges don't correct it. It's about winning. ADAs don't want a loss on their record and will do whatever it takes to win. Truth has nothing to do with the American justice system.
