Thank you for this. Camblos looks like he'd rather be having his teeth drilled.
My first impression was constipated.

Here are some of my questions on this. Camblos really wants to represent Matthew in all cases it seems. Why?
The Fairfax case, afaik, does not warrant the death penalty. Hannah's and Morgan's murder probably would. Could Camblos believe he can get an innocent verdict in the Fairfax case? If he did, then would that negate the links between the Fairfax case and the Harrington case, thus making it more difficult to get a conviction in the Harrington case and the Graham case?
Dare I even ask this...but is there even a glimmer of a chance that Matthew is innocent of one/all of the crimes? (Please, no rotten eggs & tomatoes). The Fairfax case seems a bit out of his MO.
I guess I'm naiive about defense attorneys. By now, a experience attorney like Camblos must either know Matthew is guilty as sin or else he thinks Matthew is innocent. If he believes Matthew is guilty, why would he want to even get involved in the defense? He's older, isn't getting paid a lot, doesn't need the attention. So why?
He thrives on a challenge?

Someone has suggested Camblos got coerced or intimidated into representing JM by someone within JM's family...that Camblos is afraid of JM and the family. The whole scene at the police station with JM, his mother and uncle, is puzzling. Usually the police do not find attorneys for people. People call their own attorneys.
The whole episode of JM and his coterie at the police station might have been intended to make a statement, a warning/threat.

I'm in the legal field. It can cost your average personal injury attorney in a large city close to a million a year in advertising on tv, radio, buses, billboards, phone books and internet. I can totally understand why JLM's family attorney is going to try to take these cases. It's national advertising, book deals, movie deals, tv interviews, maybe eventually a legal commentator role on a news show. But, and big but, can he afford to pay for all the expenses to try these cases if JLM's family doesn't pay? Experts, depos, forensic analyisis, etc all cost money. Plus giving up your regular paying business. Guess we'll see, but JLM may end up with public defender of this guy can't hang.
OK I am obviously more confused by this than most of you. To put it simply why can't JM get the lawyer he wants if that lawyer is willing to work for him?
I'm not a legal guy at all, but it worries me.
Also, judge asked JM if he had a job at the time of his arrest and JM said No, which we know is not the case.
