Comment

I commented on another article recently to say that defence work can leave one vilified by press, public and their client.

However, the alternative seems to be that anyone accused of an offence or crime (regardless of guilt) should not be entitled to any representation, and that trial by media should be sufficient to determine guilt and (probably) sentence.

Worryingly, the people who threatened this man’s life, colleagues and family probably think they’re in the right and are the moral-compass in the equation. It’s pathetic of civilised people to threated children.
