yes, but I only charged about 1/5 of what I would normally charge. Stupid on my part. But I liked him and it was all he could afford and I really wanted to help him... didn't want him to have to settle on an attorney who he could afford who might not fight the fight.

kool. man there is a really dark side to most people. Dont you wonder, did he just kill him? Its his story to tell with nobody around. Sounds like you did a good job for him. especially if he fled afterwards. Did he move the body? How long until he told someone? Did someone else find the body? How is the deceased's family now? are they bitter? do they feel like they got fucked over? this sounds like a rural area. Is your client gonna stay in the area when he gets out?

Was it part of your defense that he just panicked? It happens!

Yes, I occasionally find myself wishing I was a fly on the wall that night.

He told someone the next morning. Did not move the body, he just fled. The owner of the cabin found the body the next morning. The deceased's family is a very tough group of farmers, they are coping and have coped in the best way, IMHO.

Just found out, My client just got released from jail last week and is now on probation and a year of home confinement.

Do you need a paralegal? I will work for pennies on the dollar if I can learn some of the shit you speak of on here lol.

(Yeah I got laid off from my cozy gig Processing Foreclosures)
