Dozens of people gathered at the steps of the Lancaster County Courthouse on Friday to advocate for pretrial diversion.

The protesters were part of a group called Justice in Action, an organization comprised of 24 faith-based groups.
Almost 1,200 people gathered Thursday night at St. Mark’s Methodist Church to discuss the issue, with the hope that County Attorney Pat Condon would attend.
But protesters said the county attorney did not show up, so they brought their message to him.
