I respect and admire vigorous and competent Defense Attorneys, what I cannot abide are the ones that knowingly use dirty tricks and misconduct to 'win' at all costs. I've never seen anything like R&B on any cases I've followed. Judge Gull had a legitimate reason to be concerned about their representation, if she'd only handled it procedurally correct we wouldn't be here today IMO.Your comment reminds me of something that was mentioned on the recent MS podcast. I’m probably not quoting it 100% correctly but it got me thinking...
Some might believe Baldwin and/or Rossi are the greatest defense attorneys in the world and walk on water, but the fact is regardless of a person’s perception of them, it is not synonymous to whether RA is actually guilty or innocent of the crimes he’s accused of committing. The court simply assigned them to defend an indigent client, they did not choose him.
So I do wonder if people who defend RA are truly convinced of his innocence or if they’re defending the reputations of B&R? And if RA is found guilty, that doesn’t necessarily prove B&R are lousy attorneys. A conviction is simply a matter of overwhelming evidence.
Conversely, if R&B are brilliant attorneys, does that mean RA must’ve been wrongly accused and deserves to walk — if he indeed committed the murders of Libby and Abby?
Just something to think about…..
MOO
I don't believe R&B genuinely care and are so deeply invested emotionally with RA. I think they care about their notoriety and fame and what comes after the trial for them $$$$ (books, TV specials, maybe movies?).
RA put two local defense lawyers on a world wide stage and instead of showing integrity, professional and admirable behavior they have shown the exact opposite.
They should have taken a lesson from AT in the BK Idaho 4 case.
