i read somewhere that Baez is good at figuring out in advance if a case can advance his reputation and only takes those he really feels he can win...he finds an angle such as CA with the blame going to George or in this case AB together with the sloppy investigation and gets to at least one juror. As much as many of us are seeing that this is no doubt AH those there that have an oath to vote not guilty if reasonable doubt there could be one looking at some of the police work and these Cape Verdean guys running away etc. and have doubt. That is all it takes. I will say Baez does not seem up for this task and was okay until he got to AB...AB honestly got the best of him.
Is there any other big case than CA that Baez has won? I don't think that verdict was only due to Baez's ability...but he has certainly enjoyed the media calling him the 'celebrity attorney' in that case. I think he got lucky on that one.
Baez and AH are a good match...'big' egos."... something that can get you in trouble.
