  • Ok, I get it now. You're on the side that public defenders cannot do anything shady.

    The brother is alleging that the public defender threatened him that he will jail his mother if he doesn't take the plea deal. Is that really improbable?

    The fastest way for a case resolution is for the defendant to take a plea deal. That's a minimum of one day of work. A trial can take weeks or even months. Like I said public defenders are overworked and under paid. They want the cases assigned to them done quickly.

    Add. Public defenders cannot pick and choose cases. Once a case is assigned to them they have to take it even if they still have ongoing cases.

  • I can see it happening, clearly the brother don't know anything about the law. Public defenders have a lot of cases dumped into them overwhelming them. One of the first thing they advice clients is to take a plea deal, maybe the brother is pushing back against it so he/she resulted in blackmail about jailing the mother. It's still shitty of the public defender to do.
