"His defense attorney, Matt Fregi, said he harbored “no ill will toward” his client, who had already cycled through several attorneys before him. “Nothing serious,” he said of his injuries. “Everyone thought it was a lot more serious than what it was.”"

That's a cool lawyer

The radar technician? Dude, Matt straight up sucks.

Actually, that guy is completely fucked. That attorney will make sure that there is zero chance that guy can ever appeal any of his cases.

Sorry, I'm not following. You mean the defendant is fucked and his lawyer he stabbed will try to get revenge on him?

I bet that attorney has so much good will for his client that he will give the best defense even though his client is a-hole.
