I don't like the idea that a convicted murder gets to sue his victim, even though it's for separate issue.
But he's not profiting from killing Chamber's business partner. The court battle could have transpired just the same if he hadn't killed anybody.
If he was to write a book I Didn't Do It, But If I Did This Is How I Would Have Done It, 'Cept I Did Do It, that would be an example of profiting from his crime.
The letters Chambers could have and should have answered were from the court, not Durham. Chambers made a tactical error, and it may cost him. I feel sorry for the guy, but he *did* have a responsibility.
If we could read minds and violate a defendant's right to self-incrimination, we would not need plea bargains. We wouldn't have to jump through hoops.
Do you think for one second, if the DA had a rock solid case that he would have made a plea bargain? Or that maybe he did, but saved a ton of time and money? He's been in jail for over two years already.
Some fried chicken is a cheap price to pay, and with what has been presented via the news, I don't see how the DA screwed up.
My problem is that it may be another 20 years before he's executed, if there is a death penalty, and he receives it.
