1. It’s hard to imagine a lawyer going to jail.

2. Why wouldn’t I want them to still be a lawyer? I do not believe that everyone who commits a crime (and is caught, and convicted) is morally corrupt for the rest of her life.



Do you think police officers fired for misconduct should be hired in another precinct?


This is a very good question.

My issue with police misconduct is that it is institutionalized and practically protected and normalized.

Is this the case with malpractice?

I’d think that the army-like bonding of police officers is a part of the reason for letting a lot of issues slide. Is there a similar phenomenon with lawyers?
