Vox Populi: The Criminal Defense Lawyer

This was forwarded to me from one of my little lawyer friends in Mississippi.

"For those of you that don't do any criminal work, this is what you miss. I was pleading my guy to his fourth felony (narcotic sales, a sex offense and a violent act). I worked out a great deal, no time. He then asked "Is this going to make it harder for me to become a federal marshal? It's my dream."

"I told him this fourth conviction wouldn't help."

This is why I don't do criminal work.
