      Fair point, although he should get a state appointed representative regardless, right? I just am not sure whether having the best lawyer in the world or a literal sock puppet will make a difference now. Either way he’s looking at 10 years for sure. Idk though, I guess 10 vs 20 seems achievable and would be pretty worth it…hmm yeah I think I’m more with you now

        State appointed lawyers are garbage because they keep them very overloaded. A good lawyer always makes a difference because our system is set up to be more lenient on people with money
