I know this is useless, but Hillary was a Public Defender at that time. She did not pick her cases. She was assigned cases.
In our country, in case you don't know, people accused of crimes are innocent until proven guilty. Anyone who cannot afford a lawyer is assigned a lawyer...a Public Defender.
If you were accused of rape wouldn't you want a lawyer? Or are you so smart that you'd defend yourself?
The man was found guilty, so Hillary lost that case.
Whatever laughter that 12 year old heard was not directed at her, although, with all the emotional turmoil she was undoubtedly going through, she may have thought it was, JUST BECAUSE HILLARY WAS THE PUBLIC DEFENDER!!!! Of course that 12 year old assumed the Public Defender was her 'enemy'.
I don't expect a 12 year old to understand the workings of a court room. I bet she would be amazed that, after the end of a trial, oftentimes the attorney for the defendant and the prosecutor go out to lunch together!
She's a grown woman now, and should know better.

She's clearly unbalanced, and Trump is using her. Repugnant.

If I'm the lawyer, I QUIT if I'm forced to take this. BOTTOM LINE. Never.

Well, you aren't.
What if your son/daughter/dad/mom/sister is falsely accused of a murder, rape, arson, etc.? What if no one wants to represent him/her because representing an obviously guilty person would be a taboo? Everyone hates lawyers until you need one.
