SoCal Connected
Courting Disaster
"SoCal Connected" cameras take you to a courtroom that has been closed off to the world until now. We take a look at the overburdened Family Court system and those most affected by it. We see how judges and attorneys often learn the facts of a case only minutes before the case is heard and how attorneys who are supposed to represent 160 children are burdened with 240 cases.
Plus, in an installment of KCET's series Your Turn to Care, Los Angeles Times columnist Steve Lopez opens up about about his father's final illness.
And our ever-funny commentator Brian Unger takes on landlords who list "a new roof," "a private entrance," "a room in the attic" and other dubious "features" as selling points.
