man, it makes me sooo uncomfortable to read the defense attorney shitting on this guy because he had taken some coke, and tested positive for having had taken ketamine at some point... yeah, "that's how it works", but it just feels different when it's talking about the dead, who can no longer speak for themselves, rather than someone still among the living.
sure, the odds he did something untoward are probably slightly higher in the Bayesian sense than the baseline, but come on, this is such crap: "What happens when people take drugs? Generally, they act like drug people, and what drug people act like is not themselves, not happy-go-lucky...". an insult to anyone who has popped any amount of party drugs, and an insult to the intelligence of everyone. blegh.
and "Bob Lee's system is like the Walgreens of recreational drugs"... that is such bullshit. i guess being a defense attorney is not for me.
- listenallyall 3y agoA defendant is entitled to a vigorous defense. Lee's drug use, on its own, is likely not enough to warrant a not guilty verdict. But it's unlikely that's the end of it, the defense will likely claim there was an altercation, probably initiated by a drunk, wasted, coked-up Lee, and that lends credence. I mean, without knowing any facts about this case whatsoever, is it more likely a guy was literally stabbed by a stranger, entirely unprovoked, or that there was some kind of interaction prior? Again, I know absolutely nothing about this case, but the latter seems more likely.
