One of my favorite fellow blawgers, Blonde Justice, has been having an interesting debate over on her site.
She started out with a discussion about how widespread the prosecutor's witness-coaching behavior from the Zacharias Moussaoui trial actually was. That turned into a hypothetical about whether to disclose information about a lying witness to the attorney that you had to hand the case off to. Next, she asked the same question, but threw in a statement from the opposing attorney that they'd drop the case if you lied, and whether that changed anything.
It was an interesting discussion.
I love reading Blonde Justice because not only is she a young public defender, like I'm about to be, but she can be really smart without being pretentious. I think that's what I like most about criminal defense attorneys.
