Also, the caption contains exactly 14 words, which is a symbolically significant number for people who follow that ideology.

Brian Ziegler focuses on drug crimes. He said he probably manages hundreds of cases at any one time. “I leave anywhere between 7 and 7:30 in the morning, and even on non-trial days, I get home at 6:30, 7 o’clock at night,” he said. “So it’s about a 12-hour day for me.” Ziegler isn’t alone.

At stake is whether a rural county can afford to be tough on crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bridgett herself makes almost $225,000 a year, but the lowest-paid attorneys on her staff make about a third of that, far less than what you could get at a private law firm or a district attorney’s office in the Bay Area. For some prosecutors, the low pay has real consequences. Ben Rothbaum said he can’t afford both rent and childcare. “So what we ended up having to do is we bought a manufactured home, and I essentially live in a trailer park,” Rothbaum said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even if Shasta County raised salaries, it might still have trouble hiring prosecutors. Bridgett said when she started at the DA’s office in 2002, she was up against hundreds of other applicants. “It was a very, very competitive process in order to get into a DA office, not just Shasta County, but anywhere in the state,” she said. Now, Bridgett said they are lucky to get one application every month.

Moth storytellers stand alone, under a spotlight, with only a microphone and a roomful of strangers. The storyteller and the audience embark on a high-wire act of shared experience which is both terrifying and exhilarating. Since 2008, The Moth podcast has featured many of our favorite stories told live on Moth stages around the country. For information on all of our programs and live events, visit themoth.org.",
