Look, I would happily pull the trigger on the execution of a convicted ice, but defense attorneys exist for a reason. Yes, they’re often scum. Yes, they often ‘know’ that their client is guilty (paraphrasing one, don’t tell them you did the crime if you actually did it, it does make their job harder because they do have a duty to not lie in court) yet defend them as rabidly as a junkyard dog with a cat wandering in. Yes, they often posit logic or reasoning that makes the average person want to spit at them for their sheer gall. Yes! THEY GET SOME FUCKING SICK FUCKS LIGHTER SENTENCES OR EVEN ‘OFF…’
But they are critical in a sane world where the law matters not just as a set of rules but also where there are people dedicated to truth, justice, and ensuring a short-lived tyrannical government cannot just throw people it doesn’t like into jail based on allegations of crimes and get convictions based on whimsy.
John adams may have helped those six get off, and done it in a manner so similar to modern law enforcement court strategy that it assaults the nose with its stench, but don’t smear him because he did that. Smear him for his presidential actions enforcing the class war.
