I don't know if any of you out there are planning on becoming high paid PDs in the future, but you should take a look at these statistics from the Chicago Sun-Times. Thanks to Skelly Wright over at Arbitrary and Capricious for the story.
If you aren't going to read it, at least look at this number:
50 minutes�113 people = 26.55 seconds per case
Do you think you could be a good advocate if you were given 26.55 seconds per case?
By way of clarification, that's 26.55 seconds per case only for the decision on how much the bail bond should be. Presumably there's a lot more time for actual trials.
