Like the JKR case, neither of us know enough to comment. Least of all in this case the lawyers reasoning. We don't even know that the parole officer was correct. Its just an anecdote. We all "know" iffy examples. Doesn't make it general fact. Unless of course we have some stats that show lawyers are generally more self serving than any other walk of life. Do we?
