Who is Chandra Kapoor in The Night Of?

Chandra Kapoor (The junior associate handed the unwinnable) is a character in The Night Of, part of The Defense. Chandra Kapoor gets the Khan defense the way juniors get anything: the firm's rainmaker collects the headlines, then hands her the courtroom when the family's money runs out. She builds the case with Stone — her diligence, his street instincts — and carries the trial's daily grind: cross-examinations learned on the job, a client deteriorating in front of her, and one catastrophic lapse of judgment in a holding cell that the series spends with merciless honesty. The system grinds its young, too.
