Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised by the end of all these legal proceedings, if defense counsel says client is not mentally stable to continue. Keeps him out of prison.
I don't know black from white on this matter. I CAN say Justice McDonald has a brilliant legal mind. Seemed very pleasant on my few interactions with him.
I agree with the solicitation parts. But preventing someone to move to another job is crap in my opinion. I know that there is caselaw refuting my position, but it just feels gross to me.
