Now THAT’S an idea!

OK defense lawyer, put forward the absolute best case you can.

If you lose and your client gets the death penalty, you’re allowed to appeal.

If you lose that first appeal, you are free to appeal again. However, if you do and lose, you also receive the death penalty.

I was pretty angry after reading that. I believe in the rights of an accused as outlined, and I don’t believe in putting lawyers to death, but maybe as Shakespeare once suggested....

I have a major problem with endless appeals. Justice delayed is not justice.

But...I am warming to your suggestion!
