Episode artwork for I Pity The Courtroom Cleaning Staff! – When Chaos Meets a Not Guilty

In this unforgettable episode, Sacha Mount from the San Joaquin Public Defender's Office takes us inside a trial where the evidence was messy — and so was the courtroom. At one point, his client literally vomited all over counsel table during the presentation of evidence.

But the real story here isn't about the cleanup — it's about the defense. Sacha walks us through his journey as counsel, standing firm for a client charged with a crime he didn't commit, even when the state's "evidence" seemed stacked against him.

It's messy, it's memorable, and it ends with the only verdict that fit: not guilty.
