You are one of the biggest hypocrites on this board. I don't care if I get warned or banned for this, you are a disgusting human being.

At some point as a human you cross a line when you knowingly defend, using all available tools, and still prop up a defendant. It's unethical at the least and the person who did this is running for POTUS.

I understand your position but I disagree.
She had free will to take on this case and I'm only assuming that she knew the probability of winning.

I get the feeling that there are people in this world who think that some kinds of defendants should not be allowed legal representation. I guess we will just have to agree to disagree on Mrs. Clinton's handling of this particular legal case.

Public Defenders have free will to take on cases?
She was a female lawyer, in the south, in 1975. It would have been career suicide to turn down a case.
I'm the same age as Hillary. And I know how things were in the work place for a woman in a "man's world" 40+ years ago.
“The public defender was appointed to represent him and for some reason the public defender, I guess, wanted off or couldn’t handle it, I don’t know what the problem was there,” said Gibson.
Clinton offered yet another variation of the events leading to her taking the case in her autobiography Living History, saying the judge appointed her to the case after Gibson recommended her.
“One day the Washington County prosecuting attorney, Mahlon Gibson, called to tell me an indigent prisoner accused of raping a 12-year-old girl wanted a woman lawyer,” wrote Clinton. “Gibson had recommended that the criminal court judge, Maupin Cummings, appoint me.”
