[Viva Le Dissention]

My morality isn't relative; the same applies to attorneys as anyone else. Attorneys, for the most part, don't kill people. They don't lie, and they don't steal. When they kill people, when they steal, or when they break the law, they should go to jail.

To say attorneys should be held responsible, either morally or legally, for a crime that they defended, is absurd.

Why don't you say the prosecutor is morally responsbile--after all, he lost the case; shouldn't some of the burden be on him? He should have done a better job, right? If the DA had done a better job proving the case, then this guy would have been in prison. Perhaps he sleepwalks at night, worried about his damn spot...
