I appreciate this. I'm a correctional psychologist and I have been told a whole bunch of utterly ridiculous things by inmates that turned out to true. I've also been told lots of lies, some ridiculous and others that seemed plausible. Once you start thinking you know what you should and shouldn't believe then you are a menace to yourself and everyone around you. I have devolved into a permanent state of polite agnosticism. I neither believe nor disbelieve anything at this point. I rather envy this guy.

@@Vxjx15 I was once told a very involved story by an inmate about the absurd lengths the county jail went to to avoid taking him to a doctor to be seen for melanoma. It involved letters from his lawyer and orders from a judge and all kinds of delays. I just couldn't believe that the jail would take such risks with someone's health just to be petty, especially since they had no way to deny that they were aware of the person's diagnosis. But it was all true. I've also had guys tell me stories about turning themselves in for offenses that had not been detected that I thought were really self-serving and couldn't possibly be true that actually turned out to be totally true.

As a nurse, this hits home. We take care of people we think very highly of (and that society admires), and those on the other end of that spectrum. It is not our job to judge our patients or rank them in some heirarchy of value, who is more worthy or less worthy of our care. Our job is to take care of everyone... to take care of everyone the same... in the way we would want our family taken care of, the way we would want to be cared for ourselves.

I get your point but I'd like to ask you a question. I'm in hospital myself quite a lot, and I've seen this old man come in for the third time with a pretty severe injury. Each time it is because he is driving on his electric bycicle and is not wearing a helmet. Second time he got a head injury. One of the nurses mentioned this and this man and his wife got angry at the nurse for suggesting that it was maybe somehow his responsibility to wear protective gear (especially at their age). In cases where people are 'responsible' for their own pain, do you still feel like helping them as much? I've had another case of a woman who was laying next to me who didn't want to take her pills because she didn't trust them. Meanwhile, her condition was getting worse. Same question here.

Its complicated and not everyone would give simple awnser and some need guiding. Just think of him as not guilty and just another man. Even how bad it is he needs a good defence and if its really that bad the defence wont help in getting him free but can reduse sentence. This is what the guy needs and thats your job whomever he might be. You could know what he did wrong but you should take every other account you can. Who he is and whats he like. Try setup a good defence even if you know its will not win it might get the sentence redused. This is the moral way. Becouse if you dont your breaching your morals by not giving him a good defence. He will get whats deserved whatever that is. If you dont want to breach your morals then just dont lie.

@emilchandran546 3 жыл бұрын
@Lina even if you believe they are guilty. You must have faith in the legal system. If everyone guilty or innocent is prosecuted by the prosecution and defended by the defence it’s a fair system. In a fair system the jury should be able to decide if that person can be proved guilty or innocent. If you defend someone who you think is guilty and they are not convicted then the prosecution needed to do a better job, not that the defence was too strong. If the prosecution can’t prove that person guilty then one must ask why we believe they are guilty? Sometimes, the burden of proof is too high to be met with limited evidence. But that is for good reason. If it were the other way around, innocent people would be convicted because they didn’t have enough evidence to prove themselves innocent. Definitely not a perfec system. And people who are guilty sometimes get away with their crimes. But that is because the justice system is designed to protect innocent people. That means everyone gets a barrister who will defend them.

The best answer to this I’ve also heard is: “It’s not necessarily about trying to get the person off the hook when you know that they’re guilty, it’s making sure that the prosecutor has done everything necessary to prove without reasonable doubt that the defendant is guilty of the crime they are being accused of. Otherwise how long is it before any of us are accused of something that we didn’t do, and since defence doesn’t matter, we’re wrongly convicted? The job isn’t about preventing people that do wrong from being punished, it’s about keeping the court rooms accountable and ensuring they provide all necessary evidence and come to the correct verdict.”

So something that I've always thought about criminal defense attorneys is that they aren't really defending a person but instead prosecuting the justice system. Their job is to make sure that the justice system is doing absolutely everything it's supposed to and to make sure that at no point an innocent person is prosecuted of a crime they did not commit.

Sure, but what happens in outlier cases? Where their is a boatload of circumstancial evidence and literally no one else fits the profile and the defendant keeps mocking the prosecution that they can get fucked cuz they aint gonna find anything hard on them so the defendant cant even be brought to trial. So basically the person is guilty and defense lawyer knows it too. Defendant gets to walk away even though everybody and their mother knows he was guilty. I'm assuming that IRL there are a lot of "perfect" crimes get done and all the Defense lawyer have to do is "My client says nothing and denies everything" to get that not guilty.

This video is suddenly recommended to me, and it made me recall an old memory from when I was 10. As a school event, we 5-graders went to a place where kids can experience different jobs. Back then I’ve always aspired to be a lawyer, so I tried it out. They set several kids up in a small courtroom, roughly explain what we have to do and then have an adult be the judge. When they read the case, turns out I have to defend a thief that has been caught redhanded. They even provide me with the specific law section associated with this case. My impression of a lawyer just consists of “find clue” and “defend innocents” so I cannot speak anything and just stood there and let my client got the “normal” charge according to the law. After that incident I gave up on being a lawyer, because it reminds me of the powerless feeling I had while I sit at that small courtroom. I wish I could have seen this video back then.

And even if the person is actually guilty, they must have a defense no matter what. Lets say a man killed another person and that's a fact that everybody already knows in trial. His sentence length will be determined by a number of other factors that goes beyond the simple fact that he killed someone. It was an accident or not? If not, it was self defense or not? Again, if not, there was passion and/or other emotions involved or not? All this questions have answers that will determine the appropriate sentence and, for that to happen, the killer needs someone to defend him. And I can go further. Even if we knew that the guy was a cold blooded killer, he needs the RIGHT for a defense. Someone could ask "Why?". Because if he doesnt, where do we draw the line exactly? Where exactly do we say "this person cannot have a defense"? It is not possible to draw this line precise enough so that wouldn't happen misjudgments. That said, EVERYONE needs a defense, not matter what they've done. And if everyone needs a defense, there must be someone to defend even the most brutal murders out there. And this someone is only doing their job, acting in its role in the criminal process. Lawyers shouldnt be judged by that. Sorry for the broken english, not a native speaker.

Not sure I understand exactly what your getting at. It seems like your suggesting that a defense attorney’s job is, in part, to make sure the punishment fits the crime. You have to assume some level of guilt if you are to determine that the punishment fits the crime. As part of the system you might hope that it all amounts to a system where the “punishment fits the crime” but that is not the directive of a defense attorney.any more than it's a jockeys job to make sure that the best horse wins the race. The jockeys job is to try and make the horse they are riding win and a defense attorney’s job is much the same except the levels of control they have over winning are much different to a jockey. In terms of not assuming your clients guilt it, I might try to stretch that jockey analogy and say that you don't always know if your horse can win or not even if the odds are against them, sometimes an outsider wins the race but if you ride it like a loser then you almost ensure that it will lose.

However you hold the blame if you don't properly protect an innocent man from prison or death.

Ex: You're defending a guy accused of murder. The prosecution has dubious evidence and there are holes in the stories of witnesses, etc. But then, the guy admits to you that he did it. You'd still have to defend him. And if you were to tell anyone of what he admitted to you, it would be an illegal breach of confidentiality and it would be inadmissible.

I respect and accept this much more than another stance I heard from defense layers and professors on criminal and civilian law: "we don't defend people, we defend their rights". It was an alright formula on the surface, but the more I delved into studying court practice, defense lawyer practice, the more I saw that, especially in case of successful defenders, the focus is not that, not saying that they don't defend rights of defendants, it's hard to explain. But to say "everybody may lie, and our job is to represent everybody exactly the same, even if it takes courage" is much more honest, understandable and sound explanation

I’ve treated two patients in intensive care who were involved in the same car accident. One guy was running from the cops with guns and drugs. He crashed into a mother of two and broke every limb on her body, likely putting her in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. The suspect was everything but compliant during treatment and for whatever reason, I was emphatic about doing the job that I was trained to do regardless of the situation. That’s what being a professional means. You are there to provide services even if the person receiving them does not deserve it. That’s what makes us great at what we do.

I dated a girl back in the day who was a lawyer and asked her how she can defend someone who she knows is guilty. She told me basically that you have to look at the bigger picture and that America’s justice system is built on rights to a fair trial and innocent until proven guilty. If you go against that on a larger scale (as in, everyone who is guilty isn’t given the right to a fair trial), then the system would be broken, flawed, and in fact more innocent people would be thrown into jail due to our assumptions of who is guilty or not. She said the same thing you said that it’s best to give this man his rights and to fight for his freedom because only he knows the absolute truth. Your job is to represent that.

If a guilty man walks free it is because the police and/or the prosecution failed to bring enough evidence to prove they are guilty. When The justice system was made they had to make a choice about what situation is worse : all guilty people in prison, but some innocent as well - or all innocent free, but some guilty free as well.

I, as someone who has no experience in law, always see it as making sure that the police/prosecution did their job properly. If defense attorneys start to get lazy and think “this person did the crime, my defense doesn’t matter”, then the police will be lazy in collecting and presenting evidence, which is a scary thing to think about.

I’m a 20-year police supervisor. This is exactly why I have respect for defense attorneys. They keep us sharp and make sure we do our jobs properly better than anyone else can. I’m constantly thinking “If I was a defense attorney, what hole would I poke into this investigation?”

I've always pondered about this question, but when he puts it like that, it really switches the 1-sided thinking , to , thinking of the whole situation. It's almost like a slap in the face how something caused by your own thoughts could misguide you on something you're now biased about due to characteristics of another person; it's like watching a movie and guessing what the ending is gonna be as if you already know it, then bang, plot twist when the ending truth is revealed.

@@letsreadtextbook1687 If he's a repeat offender, and had a history of being there with items missing then you want a good number of witnesses, the more that can confirm your view point the stronger your prosecution (or defense vice versa) You don't get a sentence like that unless there is substantial evidence that he was a repeating stealing at the store. But if you are going to apprehend someone for a crime you need witnesses to avoid the 'He planted it on me' They probably passed details immediately to police if he got out unchallenged (or forced his way out). Dominic gave the case in a summary as the point he was making that while handling a case which was pretty much clear cut, he still had to remain impartial.

I remember taking criminal law in my sophomore year in college. I had a female public defender who started the first class with, “I know you are all thinking it. Someone just ask me the question.” Finally one student asked, “How can you defend criminals, especially those who you know are guilty?” She replied, “I know a lot of my clients are guilty. But it doesn’t matter what I think. The US Constitution states that everyone is entitled to a defense, regardless of the crime or the amount of evidence against them. I don’t believe that I am defending criminals. I believe that I am defending the Constitution.” To this day, that was the best answer I have ever heard and she had my respect. She was a great professor and I learned a lot from her.

Theft is theft . This is the problem with the law and lawyers. Take for instance a stabbing, they with bargain it down from attempted murder down to assault, They will blame the crims childhood and every other thing, but has the impact changed for the victim, who's life has change forever? Did he become a little less stabbed ? Or because he has recovered lessons the severity of the crime? Just because he stole from a department store is not different to taking your wallet from your pocket. I believe this lawyer has left a lot out of this story as they do when they represent criminals.

I love your reasoning, sir, and I will share it with my classes along with what I always tell them. Even if a defense attorney is certain that his/her client is guilty it is much better to make the best case of defense for your client, forcing the prosecution to do their best. An airtight win by the prosecution when you have done your very best to defend someone’s innocence means less chance that the now guilty client will go free in appeals.
@michelewilson6696
@michelewilson6696 3 ай бұрын
To add to this, the prosecution must put up the most airtight case possible so they can ensure they are doing their part to see the jury only convict when they have no reasonable doubt of the accused’s guilt. It MUST be proven. Accurately. Without bias. With precision. With extreme adherence to the law. Nothing less. Then, and only then, can they rest easier knowing that someone’s innocence was removed. Innocence is precious and a right. Until PROVEN guilty. When a great prosecutor and a great defense attorney and a great judge and a great jury do their jobs, the system works!
