Seems to me that in a way they are excusing her because this is what lawyers are trained to do - defend the guilty as if they were innocent. This is why I could never be a lawyer - I’d have put up a weak defense and let the guy pay and pay for this.
I just don’t think that the law is being used properly when it’s used to get the guilty off so the attorney can look good. To Hillary, winning is more important than what is right. This is why I crossed over and voted for Obama and why I’ll vote for McCain in November - despite not being happy about it.
No, how she decided to defend the client was her choice. She could of had the moral, and intellectual courage to say " No, find someone else, I will not defend this man because I believe him guilty"
