He did, but I felt he was dishonest on a number of occasions. I think a lawyer must never be dishonest to gain the upper hand in an attempt to get his client a better verdict.
Rule 3.02’s duty to the court also emphasises that Barristers, “must assist the Court in the administration of justice and must not deceive or knowingly or recklessly mislead the Court”. It contains both positive obligations (to act with independence and assist in the administration of justice) and negative one’s (not to mislead).

IMO Roux is a conman Barrister with a criminal mind himself and a very persuasive one at that.
