A teeny, little-known state agency says it can save the nation $1 million a year by overseeing defense costs for Washington's troubled public-commitment program that locks up the most dangerous sex offenders.

The state Work of Public Defense (OPD) said providing centralized financial keeping and eliminating hourly billing by defense attorneys would lead to the savings.
