It's kind of sad that for 4 years now she's been aware of his case but wasn't willing to take it on until the documentary was released and it blew up in the media. Makes one think she's definitely in it for the publicity.
here is the article. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ert-Christianity-says-convinced-innocent.html
When she first said she was going to represent him, I was sceptical and wondered how she could have looked into the whole case/trial at that point and decided she would take him on. Who knows... maybe her and/or staff was already looking into the case before the documentary. I don't know when her last case ended, was it recently? maybe freeing up the time for this case. (did a quick google search, she got Mario Casciaro freed, he was released September 23 2015)
Zellner just doesn't strike me as the type to do it for the media... but maybe she is, if for no other reason, because it does highlight some issues with the Justice system.
