I have a question for you and the other lawyers:
In school and in practice, what are the extents you are taught and told to go to in order to defend a client?
Cochran's closing argument was, to me, revolting. What would a law school professor say about his presentation? What would the general profession's perception be of defense tactics? When are you expected to hold back?
