Okayyyy. Funny how that works, isn't it.
A convicted murder gets his high priced attorney fees paid for.
If your average guy can't afford a good attorney, he ends up in the
clink... Even tho' he may indeed be not really guilty, but he can't
prove it, because he can't force a DNA test or three, and he certainly
can't afford a capital crime specialist attorney. Sighhh.
There are inequities everywhere.
