This is beautifully expressed. The passion, the desire for justice & honour, are why I love Bob & Ali Motta. They are real ones. @defense_diaries are clearly not in this for the money or to go along with the crowd #Ilovedueprocess

Defense Diaries

1/🧵 There seems to be a large number of people, in general, that seem to operate under the misconception that it is unethical for a defense attorney to speak with journalist. It is not. I’m attaching ABA Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 3.6, so that you may familiarize yourself with it. Once you’ve done that, if you’d like to debate the Safe Harbor rule…I’m here for it. There is also absolutely no prohibition that exists that does not allow for a Defendant, who is presumed innocent, to speak with the press or a journalist. I think most attorneys prefer to speak on behalf of their clients, but people are going to people. I have reviewed all 81 slides of what @MafiaMasshole posted today. There was some information that I had not seen. I am not speaking for any other attorney here or who has a YouTube channel or anywhere else and I’m going to preface my opinion with the following statements because context matters. @AlilawMotta and I pander to no one. We are career defense attorneys, we have made that abundantly clear since we started the podcast. We view issues and cases through that lens. That’s how our brains operate after decades of doing it. We don’t apologize for it, far from it, we own it, we embrace it, proudly. I firmly believe that being a defense attorney is an absolute privilege and is one of the most honorable professions that one can undertake. It is the quintessential David and Goliath scenario, as we are constantly at odds with our Government, with all of its might and resources, for the express purpose of defending the principles of the Constitution for ALL citizens of our Country, which includes those who have never stepped foot in a courtroom. As far as our public/social media profile….we cover cases that are of National concern, we cover cases that are of great public interest, we cover cases wherein we believe that a defendant has been denied their 6th Amendment right to fair trial, we cover cases where we believe that the wrong person has been convicted, which results in no justice for ANYONE involved, and which frankly, is where my passion lies. The concept that @AlilawMotta and I tailor our opinions on cases, and that’s all they are, our opinions, based on what we believe would help us build our business is absurd. One brief review of what we have covered on our channel will clearly reflect what I am saying to be true. I imagine we took a significant hit from our Richard Allen coverage, as we are of the firm belief that Richard Allen was absolutely denied a fair trial and moreover believe that he is factually innocent. That concept upsets some people. That concept angers some people. Those people are entitled to feel the way they do and believe what they believe. I hope to one day be able to PROVE them wrong. Riding the fence is the smart business decision. Going with the majority of public sentiment is the safe bet. We don’t do that unless we of course agree. Sometimes it’s to our social media business’s detriment. We don’t care. We have a different mission. We seek to educate the public on what it is that defense attorneys actually do, and what our role in the system really is beyond what many in the public misconceive it to be. We also seek to entertain while doing it. We hope and believe that we accomplish both of those things.
