Justice for all?  Justice for all?  Reviewing the rules for
lawyers  By A.J. Wagner  One of the questions I have been asked
most often since starting law school is, “Why would a lawyer
defend that creep?” It is a question born out of concern. A
media outlet reports that a person has been caught red handed
having committed a heinous crime. The next day it is reported
that the wrongdoer has appeared in front of a judge, with an
attorney, and pled, “Not guilty.” Inquiring minds ask, “Are you
kidding? He was caught red handed! What’s his attorney thinking?
What games are they playing? Why waste time and money on this
guy? Of course, he’s guilty!”  These are legitimate questions
that deserve a legitimate answer.  Take, for instance, the case
of Jared Lee Loughner who shot U. S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in
January of 2011. He was captured at the scene of the carnage he
caused. He shot eighteen people, killing six, including a
federal judge and a nine-year-old girl. The whole event was
captured by security cameras. H
