“The system isn’t broken, it’s working exactly the way it was designed”. This week we take a look into the Criminal Justice System and why it’s such a #bigkidproblem with our AWESOME guest and Candidate for NY District Attorney, Eliza Orlins. Eliza has been a Public Defender in New York City for over a decade where she has represented thousands through the Criminal Justice System. We’re going to talk about how the system works, why reforms need to be made, The “Central Park Karen” case, and most importantly why WE need to pay attention to our State and Local elected officials if we ever want to make ANY real changes in our communities.
