I don’t mean that the “professional”, recidivist criminals are actually choosing law school to qualify themselves as attorneys.
Though there just might be some qualified law professionals who are tempted to try illegal things because they can extricate themselves from any possible negative consequences, I’m referring to those individuals who have decided on a life of crime and who, often guided by their legal counsel’s advice, briefs and defence- performance in courts, educate themselves as to possible acquittal scenarios and possibilities. Before they execute their criminal business.
These fellows study the prosecutors’ shortcomings and inexperience; the intimidation of witness, the magistrates and judges’ strengths and weaknesses, even loopholes or technicalities in the law- or recourse to constitutional protection. They are thus prepared to break laws, commit crimes, soft or hardcore over and over.
