She is a piece of work, isn’t she?
Seems to me she is still pitching her original narrative. “I’ve been cooperating. The date on your paper is wrong. I didn’t try to avoid arrest.”
Based on how illogical she is, she may have refused a public attorney’s assistance and be demanding her friend Dora’s attorney. But that doesn’t mean the attorney even wants the gig or is license in the right state or type of law. If she had to sell a couch to replace carpet, she isn’t ready to put down the retainer that a private lawyer would charge for this type of case which will be consuming and generate hundreds or thousands of billable hours.
