    If they can’t provide enough defense representation for their defendants, then it sounds like the State Prosecutors should be dropping more cases.

    Not every minor drug infraction requires a prosecutor to push for a plea deal. Let it go and focus on the big stuff if there aren’t enough lawyers to go around.

      Our private prisons complicate this. They can provide local political pressure, as they are large and create many jobs.
