I like how concise this was - sounded like it covered just about everything, too! When I listen to discussions of wrongful convictions, I'm often appalled at what the defense attorneys didn't do. Often, they fail to challenge the presumptions made by law enforcement throughout the investigation. They fail to put alibi witnesses on the stand. They fail to thoroughly exhaust opportunities to impeach opposing witnesses. They fail to put a spotlight on the eggregious unreliability of eyewitness & inmate testimony.
My defense attorney did all of this but unfortunately the new DA was more strict than the others and didn’t want to give me a better offer so he said that we should take it to trial. It’s a self defense case, ADW. I did 7 months in county jail but ended bailing out. No priors. We haven’t been able to get the victim to court and got him subpoenaed as well. My attorney seems confident and thinks we should definitely take it to trial. Hoping for the best!
That’s good info, however there are very few lawyers that actually do their job. If a civilian knows about the law then they will totally refuse to work on your behalf.
Thank you for confirming what I suspected. What if you suspect that your defense attorney manufactured witness statements and maybe never talked to the witnesses? My defense attorney reports that they did not audio tape witness statements and when the two witnesses reported they would cooperate with the courts I challenge him with a proper list of questions to ask the witnesses. He now reports that the witnesses are no longer available. He has the addresses of both witnesses and phone numbers. I believe he is lying. Also I am dealing with other issues of withholding knowledge and picture evidence. How do I confirm these elements?
Thank you for such a great video I did have a question after conviction is an inmate entitled their case File from their defense attorney and if so how long do they have to get their file given to them and is there any law against a defense attorney refusing to give the inmate his file
I have a question.... My sister's defense attorney wants to send an investigator to talk, to the plaintiff. I have never heard of a lawyer doing that. Is that normal ? She gotta go to court in a few weeks. So, I would like an answer ASAP. Thank You.
Question. Can a lawyer stipulate to facts not readily proved? Like of someone charged with accessory before the fact to murder, goes to trial by himself without the murder being proved and without the principal also present at trial because the principal was unable to be tried at the time because he was being evaluated to see if he was incompetent to stand trial so there was no conviction of the actual murder at the time the other guy went to trial for the accessory before the fact to murder charge. Was lawyer highly ineffective for stipulating to murder just so the State was now able to go forward with the trial against the one charged with the accessory before the fact to murder charge? This is a question no one seems to have the answer to. Thank you!

My attorney didn't do any of this. 6 months and I heard from him maybe twice. Both times were to get me to plead guilty with no explanation.
The same with my lawyer
was he a public defender or private?
the very FIRST thing your criminal defense attorney SHOULD do is SUPPORT YOUR INNOCENCE, BELIEVE IN YOU,
My Attorney took my money and refuses to talk to be by phone, or Office visit. $5000

Good to know!
My public defender is hell-bent on being against me & uncompassionate.
