I don't know anything about the public defender system other than it's by-state so going back hundreds of years some states have always been (far) shittier than others. The dems have avoided dealing with this problem. They could pass a bare minimum of federal standards. Of course - they never will. The DOJ has been a sad joke on this.
I feel like calling situations like this a "crisis" makes it sound like a natural disaster rather than an intentionally manufactured one.
also makes it sound new and temporary as if this crisis isn't hundreds of years old by now.
Heartbreaking and disgusting.
It really is nothing but half-measures... 
A justice system utterly devoid of justice.
The cruelty is the point.
Tbh I was expecting it to be even lower than 32
America pays public defenders like 50-60k on average lmao
Is it even possible to pay off the average bachelors + law school tuition loan with that money
I don't wish to pigeonhole people, but public defenders whom I've met have had parents able to pay for their tuition.
I mean that make sense, everybody else who wants to be a public defender probably can't even consider it a viable option due to the finances
they brought back slavery with extra steps!
This feels like its actually less steps
