[PEN-L:27379] Re: Re: Re: Re: most experts agree






Do not all lawyers agree that it's their job to make sure the guilty get
punished and the innocent go free?

No. The job of criminal defense lawyers is to make sure the guilty go free. The job of a civil defense lawyer is to make sure the liable do not pay for their violations. It's an lawyer's ethical duty of zealous representation.
