Public Defender Christine steps in to defend her elderly blind client, who the state claimed somehow assaulted both a firefighter and a police officer. That's right — the prosecution wanted the jury to believe a blind senior citizen was a one-man wrecking crew.

As if that wasn't absurd enough, an officer nearly killed the man while he was in the hospital. But instead of justice, the state doubled down and stacked up seven felony charges.

Christine wasn't having it. She flipped the script, exposed the nonsense, and walked her client out with a full acquittal. Because when the system can't see straight, you need a defender with perfect vision.
