Jennifer Sellitti, the Public Defender for the State of New Jersey, joins Just Justice to talk about holistic defense, client-centered representation, and the future of public defense. She explains how addressing needs such as treatment, mental health care, employment, and benefits can improve outcomes for clients and communities. We also discuss second chances, resentencing and parole — and Sellitti’s unexpected role as a shipwreck diver and author of The Adriatic Affair.
