I was thinking about material for a new blog when I stumbled across this article. I think it highlights some important issues for those unfortunate few criminal defendants who are stricken with mental illness and who find themselves in the grips on the criminal justice system. If you have ten minutes, take some time to read this article and reflect upon the issues. I hope everyone has a safe and productive week.
