Punishing poverty is the reality.”Pulitzer Prize-winning author of James Percival Everett will join former public defender and Partners for Justice co-founder Emily Galvin Almanza to discuss her latest release The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defender’s Search for Justice in America. The book pulls back the curtain to reveal the dysfunction afflicting our overburdened legal system. From the ‘dirty tricks’ used to inflate police overtime, to the perverse incentives driving prosecutors, Galvin Almanza uncovers how our courts that claim to protect us are doing the exact opposite. More than an exposé; it’s a blueprint for rebuilding our country’s justice system.“A thoughtful, persuasive call for a truly just system of justice.” —Kirkus Reviews https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/799cfad0-f621-11f0-bf76-d32f1a3d3180-rimg-w572-h740-dcffffff-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/los-angeles/the-price-of-mercy-unfair-trials-a-violent-system-and-a-public-defenders/100001980429076680 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 38.69, max: 38.69, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Los Angeles - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Barnsdall Gallery Theatre - **lat**: 34.0998224 - **long**: -118.29369220000001 - **full address**: Barnsdall Gallery Theatre, 4814 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defenders - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/3a8a7e3889777664eb9441b1c6b0899c9532f233c53d6d42f6c912d7495f2613-rimg-w1200-h600-dcf3ede1-gmir.jpg?v=1768928410 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defenders being held? - **A:** The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defenders takes place on Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Barnsdall Gallery Theatre, 4814 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defenders? - **A:** Tickets for The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Violent System, and a Public Defenders are priced at USD 39 per person.
