Do you know how many times, I had to re-read that, to in anyway see the defenses logic to that at all, and I still can’t make sense of it… WTF to the attorney
The lawyer is trying to get him off on a technicality? “Well, your honor, the law does not say that the suspect has to pose a danger to the officer, just that they be fleeing arrest. My client was well within his legal rights to gun the violent thug… I mean victim, down.”

I mean, it might be the attorney’s hail mary. I think an attorney is required to put in reasonable effort or something maybe?
Theyre obligated to try to put up a defense even if there isnt a reasonable one.
