If all Lawyers were like this we'd all be in trouble
I had the unfortunate task of having to sit through 2 separate cases which turned my stomach. The 1st was a thief who ran out of a dept store and was grabbed by the security guard. The thief slashed the guard across the neck 25 stiches but fortunatly not life threatening. The guard was able to ID the crook from photos however the case was thrown ou due to a minor technicality......The crook was the only one wearing a "MUSCLE" shirt. THAT P>>>>D me off.
Worse than that , a drunk driving home hits another car where the occupants are an elderly couple. The husband dies and his wife(widow) is left paralized from the waist down and has a shattered right arm. Due to the fact that the guy drove home and wasn't located until the next day the charge of DWI was withdrawn. There was no witnesses to the accident and the lawyer argued that there was insufficient evidence to prove that his client was even driving the vehicle. CASE DISMISSED!!!!!!!!! I was in the bar the next night and guess who saunters in for a beer????
