Send us a text
Judge David Fleischer, who presides over Harris County Criminal Court in Houston, Texas, shares his groundbreaking approaches to criminal justice reform with a focus on mental health and autism awareness.
• Reforming the bail system to prevent wealth-based discrimination in courts
• Dropping conviction rates from 60% to 25% through bail reform implementation
• Creating court environments where defendants with mental health issues receive compassion and understanding
• Livestreaming court proceedings to increase transparency and public education
• Showing patience when working with defendants who have autism or mental health challenges
• Treating every defendant as a whole person deserving of both accountability and support
• Balancing public safety concerns with the need for rehabilitation and intervention
• Understanding how untreated mental health issues often lead to criminal behavior
• Providing resources to help defendants address underlying issues rather than just punishing them
• Demonstrating how transparency in courtrooms creates positive ripple effects throughout communities
