Re your # 3... A fair trial does not mean getting a guilty man off. It means making sure his rights are not infringed on the way to a guilty verdict

Nice if this were true...But...Trial Lawyers in the real world have one, and only one central goal...Total aquital for the accused. That is how they gain fame and more recognition.

The "fair trial goal you assert as a central goal is tripe for public consumption.

Trial Lawyers in general are wealth seeking scumbags!.

Nonetheless, Have a nice day.

I think you misunderstood my post. I agree with you. My comment that you quoted was what the goal should be, not what it currently is.
