Maybe his attorney was taking a page from Jonathon Swift. In one of his books other than ‘Gulliver’, attornies received the same sentence as their clients if found guilty so they were very careful about who they defended.
In an early Popeye strip, the sailor had a similar experience with a defense attorney — but at least the man quickly reversed himself when someone whispered to him that he was supposed to be speaking in Popeye’s defense.
