Good news in the courtroom

In court or out, our clients do so much better when people are there for them:

I was in a cramped, crowded hot court room relegated to watching attorneys negotiate people's futures. I was one of seven people - a mother, a public defender, two attorneys from our church, a chaplain, a friend, and his former youth pastor - advocating for, praying for and negotiating to get G**** a chance at life beyond jail. And we did it. We got him his chance.

Great to read that. I hope that G**** makes it. I think that his odds are good, with such decent people there to sustain him.
