What part of "I've gotten clearances for guys who had child porn issues" tells you it was a procedural matter or some prosecutorial abuse that he defended?

No, this guy is bragging he got a pedophile (or wannabe) a security clearance. Not ethical as an attorney, and certainly unethical as a human being.

You can defend him if he protected someone's rights. That's not what he is saying he accomplished.

Our system of justice relies on "hired guns".

This lawyer is a hired gun.

I am not defending him.

I am saying that is what nearly all lawyers do, one way or another.

I think the guy is a sleaze bag, unethical, and a detriment to society, from what he has said.
