PatrickCrazy said: I saw DOR's post later and responded to it because I was honestly baffled at his take on it.
Brian, I'm telling you right now. My take on it was that I read he dropped the case (Not why he did). I concluded that he saw the video and he dropped his client. My personal opinion is I respect that. Too many times we see lawyers take or continue cases because they are high profile and/or for the money. I was personally glad to see someone who see's without a doubt a murder take place and is unwilling to profit or push their profile on that. If you feel like he's being dishonest on what he's doing. That's your opinion.
I have now read this article and I will quote the following.

"I can't specifically state what is the reason why or what isn't the reason why I'm no longer his lawyer. All I can say is that the same day of the discovery of the video that was disclosed publicly, I withdrew as counsel immediately. Whatever factors people want to take from that and conclusions they want to make, they have the right to do that. But I can't confirm from an attorney-client standpoint what the reason is."
If you feel so strongly that he did something illegal or he should be disbarred. Maybe that's a cause you can take on or support someone who is.
I apologies for saying the part about attacking others. To be honest, I rarely pay much attention to what LazarusOblong post. So I missed your name attached in the first post. I still don't think it warranted you telling him to go kill himself. But whatever...
All I ask is you don't make what I said out to be that I support or advocate the lawyer in question "stage a press campaign and give interviews" if that is indeed happening. I have no opinion on that. Except if you really believe that it will "influence a jury's opinion". I wonder how much you think the video will influence the jury's opinion? Or the fact that the local police association decided not to provide funding for his legal defense...
