S2/E22: I’ll Be A Monkey’s Uncle

DISCLAIMER: The charges in this episode are of a sexual nature and may not sit well with some people. With that said, the public defender in this episode is an amazing trial lawyer and did an excellent job showing the jury that his client was not guilty of touching his nieces and that the real abuse occurred by their father.

S2/E18: The Prick Gets Caught In The Zipper (Part 1)

The Mooch is back in this 2 part episode as he takes down a Hollywood "has been" who is trying to blame his client for stealing his coveted jackets. This episode really does a great job of pointing out the structural problems within the prosecution's office that lead to unjust, ridiculous, yet entertaining jury trials. Enjoy!

S2/E15: “Psych Meds & Reefer & Beer, Oh My!”

This episode is particularly amazing and entertaining. Take a listen to fellow public defender Peter recount his DUI jury trial with crazy traffic accidents, officers performing and "failing" field sobriety test, and the late discovery of exculpatory evidence in the middle of trial which led to the entire case being dismissed.

S2/E12: Is That A Burrito In Your Pocket …?

In this episode public defender Sam's client is falsely accused of committing a lewd act on a metro train and facing life time sex registration if convicted. The courtroom drama in this episode you can't make up; there's a lying officer (what else is new?), a complaining witness that can't describe any criminal conduct and identifies someone else in the courtroom as the "culprit," and a clueless prosecutor. And let's not forget the stellar job Sam does in the presentation of her defense, saving her client from life time consequences. Enjoy!

S2/E7: Don’t Bring A Gun To A Knife Fight

In this episode defense attorney Jovan Blacknell describes how his client was found not guilty of murder. Listen as one of Los Angeles' best criminal defense attorneys describes how he brought in the actual couch from the "crime" scene and how he and a colleague acted out the incident that resulted in his client needing to use self-defense.

S2/E4: The Damned If You Do, The Damned If You Don't

In this episode public defender Benny is able to humanize and explain his client's actions in such a manner that he was only convicted of manslaughter and found not guilty of murder.  This episode isn't our typical not guilty story, but shows another side to our defense practice in representing people in unfortunate circumstances.  It's an unique episode with one of my favorite public defenders.  Hope you enjoy!
