Backlog Breaker? Attorney General’s New Crime Unit Scores First Win
Despite promising early results, statewide backlog of violent crime cases remains staggering.

We also need more judges. If you compare the judge to population or caseload ratio in the 1990s and compare it today you can see just how much the judges are being outstripped by the increase in both population and case files. The number of judges in the top 3 most populous circuits probably need to be doubled.
The issues should have been addressed many years ago. But it is painfully obvious we have very poor leadership who simply do not have the ability to manage the court system nor even public defender offices.
Why is Dorchester County even still part of the 9th Circuit with Charleston? Should have long ago been declared separate.
Are the entities working in these prosecutor offices honestly proficient?
