3. There should be a line for criminal defense attorneys that won't be crossed. It is laid out in

bar association standards and ethics guidelines. But, every decade it seems as though we move closer to the "win" and all costs--not for the client but for the attorney's record and $$-making future.

I don't know the answer, but I am DONE with the constant refrain that "everyone deserves competent legal counsel."
