Female Public Defenders In Chicago Want Men In Lockup To Keep It In Their Pants

Campanelli says the majority — 60 percent — of the assistant public defenders in her office are women who often talk to clients in the lockup areas before they're brought into the courtroom. But, increasingly, there's been a problem.

Give the females a large canister of mace or pepper spray. Although I would recommend a hand gun which wouldn't happen. I'm a male and wouldn't represent the nasty turds.
