That human moment when you end up helping a defendant whose case you are covering


Intervention was scheduled for Abdiel Sosa this afternoon. Preliminary hearing  scheduled for January 24 was vacated since his attorney, Mr. Russ Clanton is in trial. Intervention continued to March 12. Preliminary hearing now scheduled for March 14.

I was checking on some court cases during lunch when he walked up to me asked me if I spoke Spanish. He was looking for the courtroom. I ended up telling him where his case was scheduled, showed him where the courtroom was, told him the time and said he should look for his attorney or the court interpreter.

Outside court and not reading a press release, one can view a defendant neutrally and as a human.

  1. John - Good for you in assisting any person when you could! Let alone when they do not speak English, and were doing their best to be at the appointed place at the correct time, for their court case.
