      They also don’t give a shit if you’re truly innocent or guilty. They just want the case to be as easy as possible while also establishing their effectiveness so they can join a wealthy private law firm.

        I mean, a lawyer shouldn’t, public defender or no. Their job is to argue a case, not to be the judge.
