Too many local lawyers are buddies with the local District Attorney or State\u2019s Attorney! These lawyers will urge an innocent person to \u201cplea down\u201d to avoid jail time. In fact they are afraid of making waves with the courts and judges, whom are lawyers too. It might mess up their economic niche! It saves a lawyer having to really work for a living, and makes for a nice lifestyle too. I know of people paying $5000 to $20,000, just to plea down to something they never did. The next time that person is charged, investigated or arrested, they have a record which any cop can look up on the computer; in many cases right from the car computer. To a bad cop any prior police or court history means \u201cguilt,\u201d and you can count on jail time the next \u201cgo-round.\u201d<br \/>\nCall the American Civil Liberties Union {ACLU} listed in many telephone directories. They know of real lawyers who still care about false arrest and false imprisonment. Also contact The Innocence Project at http:\/\/www.innocenceproject.org for help in getting a good attorney.<br \/>\nToo many lawyers are overpriced scam artists who will sell you out and cut you a \u201cdeal\u201d before they really hear your side. Courts and lawyers today in too many cases have lost the concept of actual innocence, seeking to operate \u201cassemblyline justice\u201d on a utilitarian basis for their advantage. Many District Attorney\u2019s and State\u2019s Attorneys will also back up rogue cops over an innocent person because it is one big happy clubhouse up there. I have seen this widespread problem here in Connecticut. One arrest on your record can ruin your professional, vocational and social life forever! Once the name and story hits the papers, this ruins a person, even if finally found not guilty. Police departments and courts take away far more then is ever repaid in damages to innocent victims of judicial miscarriage. Most people never collect a dime because the system is stacked against the innocent person.<br \/>\nIn many cases you are far better off with a more expensive lawyer from out of the county or area that will really do their job. There are a number of good lawyers out there; it is well worth taking the time to look and see. Just as your mother taught you not to take candy from strangers, don\u2019t think the courts are fair and model the justice our founding fathers intended. The garments of lady justice are soiled with the dirt of corrupt cops, lawyers, and judges, as well as the blood of the innocent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some information gleaned fron the following website please check the other links on his site: http:\/\/www.geocities.com\/dansegypsy\/police.htm SELECTING AN ATTORNEY: BUYER BEWARE!
