You'd think that after years of dealing with these turds, I'd be used to their putrid tactics.
When I was a rookie, an old D.A. told me that the way defense attorneys approach a case is to deny the facts, if the facts are so incredibly obvious that they can't be denied, blame the cops.
This just means that the shyster knows his scumbag client doesn't have a chance in hell and is trying to convince everyone that he did the best he could (he wants to get paid) and is really more than just a pimp with a tie.

Remember, it's the Bronx and Bronx juries tend to hate cops.

This is a classic line which has been used by defense attorneys for years.
Sorry folks but any cop will tell you that committing perjury for the sake of a conviction is just plain stupid. What do we get out of it anyway? In truth, most of the time we don't care enough about a conviction to lie. On cases we do care about we make doubly sure the 'i' are dotted and 't's are crossed.
Another card always pulled in plainclothes arrest situations is 'He didn't know they were cops (e.g. Sean Bell).' defense. Yeah right! These perps always see us from a mile away until the day they are collared - then we suddenly become a group of mixed race, middle aged men with beer guts wandering the neighborhood for no apparent reason who suddenly swarm the defendant with the apparent intent to rob or kill him.
It's ridiculous but juries buy this kind of crap every day.
These guys are junkies who killed a cop during a Burg gone bad. This guy is grasping at straws. What's next? The angry, out of work, junkie, actor defense? Why not? Jurors may buy it. 'He couldn't help it. If only he got that part in the Charmin commercial none of this would have ever happened.'
What a joke! I wish this happened in Texas. These guys would be worm food by now.

I don't know what possessed me, but I bought the Daily Snooze on the way to the subway today. This article INFURIATED me on the N train.
This POS lawyer should be disbarred.
May Detective Enchetagui's soul rest in eternal peace and may The Almighty watch over his family.

May Detective Enchetagui's soul rest in eternal peace and may The Almighty watch over his family. The POS is, for better or worse, doing his job. Millions of American service people have died in too many wars in too many countries to assure us of the democratic process, and the absolute sixth amendment right to zealous representation by counsel in a criminal trial. It is up to the Bronx DA's, who know full well about juries in that borough, to make sure there is no reasonable doubt IN THE RECORD OF THE CASE, if it needs to be appealed. My guess? The Enchautegui family will have several weeks of hell to deal with, but Steven Armento is going down hard. Lilo Brancato will probably not get slammed as bad, but at least will do time for the burglary. Hopefully, his backside will be used in prison as a freight train yard.... And the lawyers will continue to be POS. |

I realize attorneys are paid to mount a defense but this is rediculous. If 2 crackheads are robbing a home, Do you think there is a criminal outside the house waiting to mug you? These 2 crooks knew damn well that PO Enchetagui was a cop....
God rest his soul..
