What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever witnessed a public defender do in the course of their work?
I once saw a public defender go above and beyond for their client by staging an impromptu reenactment of an incident in the courtroom. To illustrate the alleged events of a bar fight, they recruited a couple of colleagues to act it out right there on the spot. It was equal parts creative and unconventional, but it really helped the jury understand the context of the situation. While it definitely raised a few eyebrows, it showed the lengths they were willing to go to ensure their client received a fair trial. Have any of you witnessed something equally unusual in a legal setting?
