Why people think criminal defense lawyers are scum (updated x2)

By Gideon

Exhibit B.

It seems to me that someone thought they were being artistic. The pictures, to be honest, aren’t half bad. It’s the subject matter of the pictures that is extremely questionable. Here are the worst offenders:

• Family Violence
• Sex Crimes (a tear? really?)
• Rape and Sexual Assault (I mean…I don’t…)
• Child Sexual Assault and Internet Solicitiation (wouldn’t a picture of a cop on a computer have been more appropriate?)

So, after looking at these I bet you’re curious what they have for the rest. The rest are as unimaginative and boring as these are offensive and stupid. Here’s Murder and here’s [I have to warn you: that image is really, really gross. No nudity or anything, but..just...be careful and do not blame me for clicking on it] what it should have been. Here’s violent crimes, but  I think this would fit better with their theme. The only one that I think really works in money laundering (hey! someone’s got a sense of humor!).

Update: An intrepid reader provides a picture of what real money laundered money would look like. I want to swim in it.

Update-Update: The Texas Tornado points out that it’s a findlaw website, but someone still had to approve the damn thing.

Anyway, somebody better take screencaps quick before they change the images.

I have to ask: What is wrong with people?
