In this episode, we're doing something different. I'm speaking with an individual whose job is to hold a national perspective on criminal justice issues: Nelson Bunn, Executive Director of the National District Attorneys Association, whose mission is to be the "voice of America's prosecutors" and provide training to local prosecutors. I wanted to interview Nelson because the NDAA influences the policies of thousands of prosecutors across the country. And the wide range of views among prosecutors on how to use their power and discretion makes Nelson's job immensely complicated. In this episode, Nelson takes us behind the scenes on how that works.
