Public Defender Evan from Solano County walks into trial with a client staring down a heavy prison charge — and a jury already thinking he did it. Not exactly the best accommodations. But with skill, strategy, and a little courtroom magic, Evan got the stars to align for a not guilty.

And to make this episode even better, comedienne Ashley Ray (from TV, I Say w/Ashley Ray) co-hosts, bringing fresh perspective and hilarious commentary to the mix.

Because when the state tries to check your client into prison, sometimes it only takes one badass defender to upgrade the whole outcome to five stars.
