text: We are all little people, without the power to effect the kinds of changes you are proposing.  I would suggest that you take each issue, one step at a time.  First of all, forget the district attorney.  What you would like to see happen will consume all your time and energy.  Put that behind you.  Just remember, what goes around comes around.\n\nThe fact that you have charges against you seems to be the most critical of all.  There is no way to avoid this, so you must have representation that you can trust and who will work for your best interests.  Know that attorneys in general take too many cases, have too many clients, let things go unintentionally, and clients are hurt.  The system is flawed right now.  So don't quit.  Keep looking till you find the right one who really will help you.
