    The lawyers. Even a rapist’s friends deserve a fair trial. The lawyers are simply doing their job and ensuring that no one can claim the rapist’s friends didn’t get a fair hearing.

      If you can’t get a lawyer because you’re so repugnant that no lawyer will represent you, that’s your problem. You shouldn’t have done all the crimes and also refused to pay them.

      Trump is not a mafia Don because they always pay their bills, probably some extra under the table too. Even when they lose.

        This doesn’t work when somebody is innocently accused. That’s why everybody has a right to a lawyer

      Eh. That’s true for the commoners, but at a certain level of case, the lawyers are chasing notoriety and large sums of cash, and will do everything they can to cheat their way to a victory or stalemate to push justice off a while longer.

      This isn’t really about fair representation so that justice can be served, it’s about legal tricks to circumvent and delay justice.

      Don’t feel bad for lawyers abusing the legal system and getting stiffed.
