If Westerfield had been aquitted and this guy killed another person, how could the defense laywers have lived with themselves.

I would think the defense lawyers, who knew the truth, would be on the short list for a killin'.

Getting him off, could have been signing their own death warrant.

I think the twelve jurors and the judge would have deserved the same, no?

In short, its just a job, man, just a job.

Just a job that has serious consequences that pertains to peoples lives and in some cases their death. Therefore, this job, the job of being a lawyer, bears a higher degree of ethical standards, which at least in the Avila case, lead to the death of Samantha Runnion, perhaps because the lawyers attitude was "it's just a job, man".

The lack of outrage and the willingness to accept this degree of low ethical standards within our Justice System, reflects the attitude and condition of our society today and I am outraged by it.
