Hailing from just up the mountain in Monterey, TN, Jonathan Young now serves as Circuit Court Judge over Clay, Cumberland, DeKalb, Overton, Pickett, Putnam, and White Counties - the largest judicial district in Tennessee. In this podcast, Judge Young shares the oft untold struggles that he faces in the courtroom, the challenges of a political campaign, the efforts behind not bringing work home, and what drew him to a career in the field of law. Whether fighting the drug and alcohol epidemic or proceeding over an adoption case, Young has a fervent compassion for the children of the Upper Cumberland that are facing tough realities at home. In this episode, he tells us about how the success stories of those who have turned their lives around keep him motivated to continue the fight. Great insight behind the scenes of one of our local judges!
