[blindLaw] Speaking with a prosecutor or a public defender about performing the job as a blind person

[Ronza Othman]

I used to be a state’s attorney in  Cook County, IL primarily prosecuting high-volume felony cases including death penalty cases when the death penalty was a thing there. It’s been a while, but most non-visual techniques don’t change. Also adding Garrett Mooney to this thread, who is currently a state’s attorney  in Baltimore city.

I would like to discuss strategies you use as a blind person to do your job. I think I have some ideas, but I like to talk with those who have experience in this role as well.
