My business law professor in Canada was one of attorneys for survivor families in Hampton case.
He started as a criminal lawyer in Chicago, but had a very short career because he completely ruined his track record by often defending Panthers, and blacks in general, and predictably loosing every time.
Had he have a choice to pick clients, he said he would've declined, but being a young lawyer he had to put bread on the table somehow.
First, he said made it for money, but then he got a near personal enmity with the judge, and continued just for the sake of inflicting just one defeat on them.
It was around late seventies when he noticed judges casually smoking with prosecutors in between court brakes.
And then he decided to move to Canada, and continue his career there as a contract lawyer, and in civil litigation.
