No. Both are attacks on a legal justice system which works better than any other. The perceived problem is LAW-YAHS. In truth, lawyers are merely the arbiters of the criminal justice system. When I defend a client, I ALWAYS tell him/her I can only deal with the facts as presented by the sides. I never make them up.

So when someone walks that we are sure is guilty (O.J.) we blame the lawyer. When someone is deemed guilty that is later shown innocent, we blame the lawyer.

I want everyone who takes these positions to sit down and come up with a better system.

Post your replies here.

Thanks
