Reasonable suspicion allows police to briefly stop or question someone, but only when they can point to real, specific facts. It’s more than a hunch, but less than what’s needed to make an arrest.

#2 is false! Public Defenders are assigned cases through the court system to ensure everyone has equal access to justice. Georgia’s public defenders make sure the justice system serves every person who needs support. #GPDC #TwoTruthsAndALie #PublicDefense

2 Truths and a Lie: GPDC Edition 1. Public defenders represent clients at no cost to the individual. 2. Public defenders can choose which clients they want to take. 3. Public defenders are licensed attorneys just like private lawyers.
