Do you just need to a find a way to pay them adequately?]]> 2021-03-01 14:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253274756 estrajam https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253279701 Eddie Joe Lloyd Story is quite tragic and what is even more devastating is the fact that the type of trial he went through is still common today. The frequency and recurrence  of Lloyd' s trial reveals dangerous selectiveness of legal precedents in the US Government- especially from a racial standpoint. This provides evidence of the longevity and various facets of institutionalized racism in the US legal system and how social stratification of the lower class fuels this issue.]]> 2021-03-01 14:26:36 UTC https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253279701 brashsky https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253290446 This lack of fair and capable lawyers leaves a very tarnished image on the entirety of the US government ]]> 2021-03-01 14:28:21 UTC https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253290446 https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253292917 I think it is sad some of these public offenders seem to ignore the people they are defending]]> 2021-03-01 14:28:45 UTC https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253292917 https://padlet.com/fairltyl/gideon/wish/1253583555 I think if the government is going to provide counsel that counsel should be capable and adequate.
