240 | Adrienne Johnson: Can Gwinnett County Muster the Political Will to Solve their Public Defender Problems

Hunter is joined by another amazing guest from the Wren Collective, Adrienne Johnson. The conversation in this episode is about their report on Public Defense in Gwinnet County, Georgia. While there is a state wide Public Defender in Georgia, Gwinnet County has been able to maintain its independence from the state system. If Public Defender’s in Gwinnett County want to maintain that independence, it is essential that they address some of the glaring problems in Public Defense that this report exposed.

Adrienne Johnson, Senior Counsel, Wren Collective
