Doesn’t this provide the basis of a slander lawsuit against the defense attorney by the mother of the deceased?
Maybe someone can explain this to me.
US attys are given pretty much free rein to LIE and CREATE a fake scenario that usually besmirches the character of the victim.
In other countries, when attys lie, they are forced to stand before the court and apologize to those they slandered.
Why can’t US attys be held liable for their lies?
Blaming the dead baby’s grandfather worked in the Anthony trial, establishing ‘doubt’ about his daughter’s guilt. These lawyers get mighty desperate with lousy cases and will try to pull absolutely anything out of the hat, caring not a whit about this woman’s life that has already been wrecked.
