Episode 69: Fairfax County Mental Health Treatment Docket

Crime Time: With Virginia Defense Attorneys

We went big in this episode and had 4 guests on this show from the Fairfax County Mental Health Treatment Docket! We were lucky that Judge Tina Snee from the Fairfax County General District Court, Michelle Cowherd, the Mental Health Treatment Docket Coordinator, Christian Fernandez one of the Fairfax County Assistant Commonwealth Attorneys, and Negin Farahmand Wood, a rock star Fairfax County Public Defender all agreed to come on to help us educate folks on what a mental health treatment docket is, how it works in Fairfax, and why it is so important! Judge Snee was our first female judge to join us on the show and we have never had a Commonwealth Attorney and Public Defender on together in an episode and we survived it so we may have to try that again!
LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
If you are listening to this podcast, thank you! We sincerely hope you are listening to this podcast for its entertainment value and not with the intention of acquiring legal advice for any individual case or situation. I mean, come on! You wouldn’t take advice from someone you have never met or spoken to directly, right? If you were bleeding profusely, you wouldn’t listen to a podcast in hopes of a bandage somehow materializing over the internet and onto your 3D printer. Seeking actual legal advice can be just as important as a tourniquet. The hosts of this podcast are in no way intending to create an attorney-client relationship with any listener. Sorry. We are sure you all are great people but we cannot stress enough how little we know of you and your case and rather than risk an awkward moment, let us just remember we have never met. Nothing on this platform be taken as legal advice for any individual case or situation! We are just a group of friends with differing opinions and viewpoints which we will try to explore through discussions of current events, law changes, and whatever else floats our fancy.
