OOPS! Democrat!

Quote:
The Democratic nominee in the heated Alabama Senate race once defended a man in court who has ties to the Ku Klux Klan and Holocaust deniers, complicating his record on the campaign trail as a civil rights champion.

Former U.S. Attorney Doug Jones is running against Republican candidate Roy Moore for the Senate seat, which was long occupied by now-U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Well, that is what attorneys do. Every person charged with a crime is entitled to be represented in court. I myself represented some crooks in my private years, but that does not make me a crook.

A defense lawyer acted in his client's defense? I am - well, to be honest I am not sure what the story is.

Looks like some of us think defense attorneys only represent like minded people.
