Yes, that exactly what it means! It's a sickening
Fact that attorneys
do use their clients to gain time or a continuance which was in my case, my divorce "trial". It was indeed a trial by judge (not jury) that lasted a year, closed to the public because of financial and medical records. I sued him for divorce on Adultery, Cruelty, and 9 other counts. There were witnesses called including 2 of his "paramours", my doctor, records representative from the hospital, banking personnel, etc.
My attorney, whom the judge had pointed out was
the best in the DFW area, wanted me to play sick and go to the ER with a sinus infection at Midnight before an 8am trial date. A sinus infection! I flatly refused because it was dishonest. I told her NO, we will show up as we are supposed to and tell the God's honest truth, let the judge do her job.
In another instance, she wanted me to turn myself in to the hospital for a 72 hour mental hold! I absolutely refused because I was just plain ole' depressed, I wasn't mentally ill. I was simply crying due to the toll it was taking on me, but my attorney wanted to buy time. Once again I said NO, I would not be dishonest with the judge!
Due to myself playing it honest, I got the best outcome available. I got all assets, my husband got all the debt. He had to pay the house off and put it in my name only. He had to pay my 6 figure attny fees. He had to
completely support me for 4 years including medical insurance and much much more. Had I been dishonest like my attny wanted me to be, the judge would have seen through it and my award would not have been as good.
IMO. I'm proud that I did the right thing.
Having said that.... Jodi and her defense team are making a HUGE mistake, but that's OK by me! All of these games and dirty tactics are going to get Jodi what she deserves. The judge AND jury are not fooled. They will see what is really going on behind the scenes and give Jodi the death penalty.
It does not EVER pay to lie.
