In the recent trial of the husband who caused the death of his wife, dismembered her body, burned the body parts then concealed what remained and then lied to the police about his part in all the above, had a lawyer who after seven years of college and law school and 40-plus years of criminal law practice come up with the carefully crafted defense of "ooops."
During the trial, the learned lawyer held up a life size dummy to illustrate his argument to the jury as to how the death occurred and a photo of the lawyer and life sized dummy side by side appeared in the daily newspaper. My complaint is the paper failed to identify which one was the dummy. A little "right" or "left" would have been in order.
