This thread has really illuminated, for me at least, the importance of the criminal defense lawyer. Taken out of the television and put in a context as a protection not only of an individuals rights to due process, but as a check to ensure due diligence, has really modified my view of the system as a whole.
Thank you to everyone who have been able to bring this point out. I don't think I will ever think of a defense lawyer as someone defending a client as much as someone defending the very concept of our system.
