#3 They should be placed on "suicide watch": if any of 'em try to off themselves, the guards should stand back and watch.

#4 You can have suicide with a bomb or suicide without a bomb. Suicide without a bomb is far more preferable with these guys. You say they are hanging themselves with sheets. Give them more sheets.

#7 Mojo--it's kind of like the surgeon whose said the opertion was a success but the patient died. With lawyers: "I got him off but lost my client.".

#8 Zachary Katznelson - Sr. Counsel of a group called "Reprieve".
Clive Stafford Smith - Founder of Reprieve and a former Soros Senior Fellow.

Odd that the story didn't see fit to mention their affiliation.

#17 I heard last week it takes the lawyers a long time to gain the confidence of the detainees. Just having a Soros business card isn't enough.

So they gotta do some things to gain the confidence, ya know? Like letters, information, data, nifty stories, files, saws, stuff to throw at the guards, ya know? Like the nice lady that wuz disbarred last week, ya know whad I'm sayin', here?

#22 What better way for lawyers to express their outrage than by joining suicidal clients in their final act?

#23 There goes the lawyer's meal ticket.
Posted by ed 2007-04-30 21:05||   2007-04-30 21:05|| Front Page Top

#24 The tone of the article is to suggest that depression and suicide tendencies on the part of detainees is the result of incarceration, particularly at the hands of the evil George Bush. What is never mentioned is that this depressive state of mind is what drove these people into jihad in the first place.

So rather than offer even marginal defense to a client of not being in sound mind when participating in criminal action, these lawyers would rather blame the government for mistreatment. Their personal agendas trump basic representation.
