Kosciusko Public Defender Board Hears Update On Staffing Changes

WARSAW – The Kosciusko County Public Defender Board heard updates on changes within the county’s pool of public defenders during a Thursday, Nov. 12, meeting.

A few months ago, Kirkwood stepped down to return to private practice with his brother in Nappanee. Birch said he spoke with Faulkner about working full-time but that Faulkner wants to maintain his private practice. He also mentioned Nicholas Jacobs will be fully stepping down as a public defender at the end of 2026.
