Newspaper Article
Misdemeanor diversion program proposed in San Bernardino County
2015
Overview
In an effort to reduce San Bernardino County's misdemeanor caseload by upward of 25 percent, the District Attorney's and Public Defender's offices are proposing a diversion program for nonviolent misdemeanor offenders. Unlike the similar-in-concept drug diversion program, eligible participants for the misdemeanor diversion program would not be required to enter a plea before participating in the program. If an eligible offender chooses not to participate in the program or fails to complete it, he will be prosecuted, said San Bernardino County Public Defender Phyllis Morris-Green. \"We're probably one of the largest counties in the state and nation putting a program like this together,\" [Mike Ramos] said. \"I truly believe that once we get this program in place, it will be a model for the entire state.\"
