[QUOTE="Lil, post: 651628, member: 17309"] First and foremost - Big hugs for your hurting heart. I feel so badly for what you are going through. It doesn't pass the sniff test because it isn't true. In fact, a public defender is more likely to refuse to represent someone who is out on bail...the thinking is, if you can get someone to post bail, they should be paying for an attorney instead. Now as I always say, states differ, but that's my experience. A person who is indigent, and in jail awaiting trial, [I]always[/I] has the right to a public defender. County jails generally don't have much for mental health...but at least he has a roof, food, and no drugs. Stay strong Echo. We're here for you. [/QUOTE]
