This is a great video by The New York Times that shows a day in the life of Arthur Jones, who until recently was an assistant public defender for Miami-Dade County, as he struggles to keep up with an increasingly demanding caseload.

The scary thing is that Mr. Jones’s experience is hardly unique but rather is the norm.

SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS: How well do you think the public defender who represented your family member did on the case?
