| #2 Most people do NOT like the way Lawyers twist the law, some practice law honestly, but they're far outnumbered by those who look at the practice as a permit to twist (break) the law to get rich. |

| #1 I guess some people just don't like lawyers. Or maybe the killer got taken to the cleaners in his divorce and Rahimullah represented him. |
