WWWWombat Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Our justice system is an adversarial one and depends on lawyers doing their best to represent their clients. If you can't defend people who are guilty of horrible crimes, then don't become a criminal defense attorney imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelticwizard Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 While I wouldn't hold it against the attorney for quitting, considering the outrageous nature of the crime in question, I would not characterize whatever attorney replaces him as "heartless". Every defendant deserves a vigorous defense, that's the way the system works. And every now and then you come across a Central Park Jogger case where the defendants are convicted but are, seemingly impossibly, exonerated by later evidence.
