I guess this is what I have trouble understanding. How can a lawyer consider it a victory if he got his rapist client a 1 year sentence instead of a 6 year sentence (made up numbers) Wouldn't that eat you up knowing that you got a criminal out on the streets earlier than he should be, especially if he re-offends?
