In considering options for funding, it seems that private funding might not be too easy to come by. Compared to other causes, "criminal defendants" are not likely a sympathetic group capable of pulling in the needed donations. However, considering the necessarily public nature of this cause, it might be possible to obtain funding from the City itself, which pays for the public defenders in the first place.

As for the second issue you bring up, it is a separate problem in itself - one that presumably is not occurring yet (unlike the voir dire issues). "Fixing" the potential jury pool also seems to have a much more blatant element of "unfair trial" than voir dire selection, since voir dire is a traditional element of trial, whereas jury pool selection is traditionally performed at random. If such occurred and was discovered, I think it would be along the lines of an "abuse of power" scandal that the media love to uncover.
