A Dumb Question - If Juliani Knows Trump Has Committed Obstruction ....

[Shrike47]

6. I used to represent the State in Post-conviction cases. Had a fascinating case re :disclosure.

Arrested man told his attorney, right after disappearance of two children he had contact with*, that possibly the children would be found in a certain place, and drew a very rough map. The map was to a wild, forested, mountainous area. The attorney stewed. The client did not tell the attorney if the children were dead. The attorney stewed some more.

What would you, as the attorney, do?

The attorney considered going and looking himself, but feared he would miss the children, if they were there, due to the vagueness of the map and the wild terrain.

Eventually, he got his secretary to make an anonymous telephone call to the police conveying all the information he had.

The police searched, found the children (dead) and the client was convicted of murder.

All in all, I was glad I wasn’t the attorney.

* the client went to the victims’ house to buy meth. There wasn’t any. He was furious.
