SELECTING AN ATTORNEY: BUYER BEWARE!
Be careful who you hire as an attorney! Too many local lawyers are buddies with the local District Attorney or State’s Attorney! These lawyers will urge an innocent person to “plea down” 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 “guilt,” and you can count on jail time the next “go-round.”
Call 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.
Too many lawyers are overpriced scam artists who will sell you out and cut you a “deal” before they really hear your side. Courts and lawyers today in too many cases have lost the concept of actual innocence, seeking to operate “assemblyline justice” on a utilitarian basis for their advantage. Many District Attorney’s and State’s 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.
In 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’t 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.
