Re: “When you are dealing with those folks the only word ya use is "LAWYER".”
I just watched a documentary about five boys, aged 16 - 18, who broke into an empty house to rob it for drug money. It turned out to not be empty. When they were inside for a minute, the homeowner came downstairs with his gun. He shot two. One died. The other four were arrested and charged with murder.

The lawyer for one of the 16 year olds convinced him to plead guilty in exchange for a lighter sentence. He only got 45 years. The other three went to trial and were found guilty. They got 55 and 60 years.

So, 4.5 years on, the families managed to get the case before the state supreme court - which found in favor of the boys. They weren't armed. They didn't intend to hurt anyone. They didn't directly contribute to the death of their friend. Murder conviction thrown out. They were resentenced for burglary and given ten years, cut in two for good behavior, less time already served. Two of the three were out three months later. Another had to do a year or two more. And the fourth? That was the 16 year old who'd pled guilty. Because of his plea, the Supreme Court decision did not affect him. His sentence remained at 45 years.

*grin* Nice going, lawyers!

...everybody in jail for supporting Trump began their problems by trusting the fbi and talking to them. When you are dealing with those folks the only word ya use is "LAWYER".
