Law professor Jonathan Rapping says public defenders impact more than just what happens in the courtroom and should lead the charge to end mass incarceration.
Public defenders are a critical aspect of the U.S. criminal justice system as they help 80% of the people who interact with the court systems.
When Jonathan Rapping first started practicing law as a public defender, he did not fully appreciate the role and impact that public defenders play in ensuring justice for marginalized people.
