I agree! I think she likely did try to get him to plead guilty—long ago. But he refused. So she was forced to do what she did so her client would not face the possibility of the death penalty—including accusing other people and trying to get the case thrown out. I blame BK for this entirely.Look, I'm not a big fan of AT, and I hate to have to somewhat jump to her defense, but some of these claims are going a bit overboard imo.
AT can not ask for a plea deal without BK's consent. Period. It is completely BK's decision. I guarantee she has consoled BK for many many months (if not years) that his chances of an acquittal are close to zero. Giving her client an honest appraisal of the case against him is also part of her job, and I'm certain AT has been doing this. She's not dumb or incompetent. But ultimately it is BK's decision and if he doesn't want to plea, AT must still represent him to the best of her ability.
All my opinion, but I feel kinda yucky now.
