[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 438474, member: 59"] Janet, no worries, I know you well enough to never to take offense at anything you say. I love reading your input and I agree with what you have said about this case. Trust me I know about incompetent attorneys who have a big ego and little talent. I also know it takes a very unique type of person to be a criminal defense attorney. Like the WFTV analyst said, they are a different breed. They have to have a very thick skin because they are up against enormous odds. They are villified and hated by most everyone until someone in their family gets into trouble and needs an attorney and then all of a sudden they understand. They have to be able to withstand the pressure and they have to passionately believe in the rights of everyone to a fair trial. I have heard just about every horrible thing said about them and been involved in many discussions with friends and family about cases where their opinions were formed before they heard all the evidence. I've lived with my husband after he has lost a case that he felt he should have won for his client and I've seen him agonize when a client is sentenced to jail. Klmno, what kind of case is this and where do you live? You can pm me. He has handled cases all over the country and can probably refer you to a good atty in your area. It gets expensive for him to travel out of state as I'm sure you can understand, but he has done it many many times. Nancy [/QUOTE]
