Kern County Grand Jury Reports On Public Defender's Office
The 2008 to 2009 Kern County Grand Jury inspected the Public Defender's Office on April 7, 2009, noting 64 attorneys and 133 total staff across multiple offices. Findings cover constitutional rights, case volume, costs per case, juvenile cases with gang enhancements, and potential budget cuts of 15 percent that could shift 10,000 cases to IDP, costing about 4.16 million dollars. Recommendations urge CAO and BOS to limit budget impact and post the report for public review, with responses due in 90 days.
