Today, Hunter was joined by the Southern Center for Human Right's Blake Feldman. Hunter and Blake walked through a handful of criminal legal policy changes that recently went into effect in Georgia. Unfortunately, the state continues it's tough on crime approach that may ultimately lead to more kids in adult court, more adults serving mandatory minimums, and the state further trying to incarcerate it's way out of societal issues.   Guest: Blake Feldman, Senior Policy Counsel, Southern Center for Human Rights   Resources: Southern Center for Human Rights https://www.schr.org/ https://www.facebook.com/southerncenterforhumanrights/ https://x.com/southerncenter https://www.instagram.com/thesoutherncenter https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCApuQiMnBpcuxt-GWx9eF1A https://www.linkedin.com/company/thesoutherncenter/         Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 [email protected]  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patreon www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?
