Deep inside the mind of a defense lawyer

Obviously, defense lawyers are a key and necessary part of our justice system (etc., etc., etc.) However, sometimes there's justice, and there's "justice."

From defense lawyer, TalkLeft proprietor, and occasionally HuffPost contributor Jeralyn Merritt comes this:

I just found out that Tom DeLay has got himself the best lawyer in Texas and one of the best trial lawyers in the country - Houston's Dick DeGuerin... Dick has also been a very good friend of mine for 20 years. You may remember him as David Koresh's lawyer in WACO, or Kay Bailey Hutchinson's lawyer, or the lawyer... who got Robert Durst acquitted of murder even though he admitted hacking up the body.

Just let that wash over you and sink in.

But, wait, no, really, he had a good excuse.
