Barbara Thompson has worked full time in administrative roles for Philadelphia’s public defender’s office for nearly 16 years.With an annual salary of $32,000, Thompson, 70, wakes up every day at 4 a.m. to catch a bus and then a train for the 90-minute commute from her home in New Castle, Del., to the Center City offices of the Defender Association of Philadelphia.
“The commute itself is tiring, but I’m a survivor and I’m a fighter, so I have to do what I have to do,” she said.
Lol race hustling. FYI intelligent people don’t work as public defenders.

I can’t follow this crappy news outlet anymore. After 50 years reading its various iterations, I’m out.
Of course they do!! How about dealing with the actual problems?
Lol
