The District Attorney

Today I met the DA of Mecklenburg County. A very nice, hard working lady who has a wicked sense of humour, is an unsettlingly accurate mimic and who makes the law work on the ground for the children who come within her sphere of influence. She is also very articulate and I learned a lot about a very different system from her.

I have spent the last six hours writing up my notes and I know have a much better idea about how the individual projects I have been looking at fit within the system. Thankfully, I feel a little less thick and I am grateful to Mrs Long for this as well.

I also feel a great tiredness. To the County Jail tomorrow, early. So this is a short posting, I must sleep.
