So, Scott Peterson was found guilty. I'm amazed, given how stupid most people are. Seems to me that all you need is one stupid person on a jury, and stupid people aren't exactly in short supply. I mean, all defense attorneys do is lie. They could say, "well, a martian could have come down on the night in question and killed Laci." And while that technically could have happened, no reasonable person would think it did. But there are far too many idiots out there willing to believe defense attorney lies. No matter how preposterous they are.
For the record, I don't believe in "beyond a reasonable doubt." I believe if "is it likely?" In fact, even if Scott Peterson is innocent, I think he should fry just for being a lying ass who appeared to be guilty. The guy is scum. He doesn't deserve to live.
Other Layman legal opinions: O.J. was TOTALLY guilty, and Rodney King DESERVED to get beat.

Give me a defense attorney over a prosecutor any day. Either is capable of lying, but defenders don't see your and my constitutional rights as an obstacle to getting the job done. Besides, John, Daredevil, The Man Without Fear is a defense attorney! Did you think of that?
Although one prosecutor I like a lot is Judge Dredd.
I do believe Birdman is also a defense attorney...
