This week on the Campbell Conversations, host Grant Reeher continues his series on poverty in the Syracuse region, with a discussion of criminal legal representation for the poor. Grant is joined by two attorneys who provide indigent legal representation, Sheldon Gould and Francis Walter. Together they sketch out how the system of indigent representation works, its challenges, ways to improve it, and how their experiences have changed their own views toward the poor.
Grant Reeher is a Political Science Professor and Senior Research Associate at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship. He is also creator, host and program director of “The Campbell Conversations” on WRVO, a weekly regional public affairs program featuring extended in-depth interviews with regional and national writers, politicians, activists, public officials, and business professionals.
