Why isn't it a crime for a lawyer to defend a person who they know is guilty?
But isn't that unethical?
It's a hotly debated topic within the legal community, but most agree that it is ethically permissible for lawyers to defend guilty clients. The American Bar Association's Model Rules of Professional conduct state that a lawyer has a duty to zealously defend their clients within the bounds of the law, even if they know their client is guilty.
