Send me 😰 and my muse will admit one thing that makes them uncomfortable
❝ I think it goes without saying that the aggression towards defense attorneys is growing and has reached its peak. Thinking back twenty years, I do not remember receiving quite as much hatred — be it verbal or virtual — as I do these days. It is… troubling to say the least. People do not understand the justice system unless they get involved and educated about it. Especially family members of supposed victims have become a lot more physical if they don't get their way.
Grief will always drive people over the edge but I think there will be a point in time where we need new laws that protect us doing our work and being private people outside our work. I've seen a lot of colleagues quit out of fear for their families and the system does nothing at all. As an attorney seeing and noticing where the system fails you isn't just adding to my bank account all the time… ❞
❝ If you ask me, whoever threatens anyone who legally does their job out of mere self-serving hatred should be receiving the full force of the law. That is… IF the law even existed. Sadly not yet. Maybe I should start a petition? ❞
