(Hour 2c) Rich continued on with Dennis Hogan to talk about the recent case of human trafficking, and what exactly it is. Later, they talked about how the backup of cases because of the drug epidemic has caused prosecutors to go for plea bargains more to avoid backing up the system, and what that means for the county and those that would face trial.
