“The people who will try to ‘explain and excuse’ him.
The LAWYERS who will DEFEND him.”

The system would break-down without defense lawyers who are willing to represent those accused of horrendous crimes.

Those guys are not evil, they are simply doing their job.

I understand lawyers defending people who claim innocence. I do NOT understand a human being who tries to get someone free who ADMITS guilt.
People who defend the admittedly guilty aren’t interested in justice-IMO- they are engaging in a mental ‘game’. Who is the slickest attorney, who can manipulate the law the best. Also- high-profile cases like heinous murder are great for attention.
Somewhere in there, the actual crime is IRRELEVANT.
I don’t know how any attorney, who defends someone he KNOWS is guilty, can live with themselves.
Maybe the ‘system’ should be changed so the ADMITTEDLY guilty condemn themselves-bypassing the expenses incurred defending them against facts. My opinion.
