I think we also, and I know you and I have had many conversations about the criminal justice system. I think we need to do whatever we can to expand the problem solving courts. We need more mental health courts. We need more OWI courts. We need more drug courts, we need more veterans courts. We need more health and wellness courts, which is something that the tribal courts do. We need more of those specialty courts, and we need to figure out more ways to promote those across the entire state. (51:57–52:04)
