p.s. I'm moving this question from "ethics" which deals with attorney disciplinary rules to which this question's not really relevant to "criminal defense" where more lawyers practicing criminal law may see this and weigh in....

Great answer!!

Controversial subject but I'm not sure it's all that black and white. You make many valid points, but every case is different. I handle mostly sex cases including lots of child molest cases, so I know how hated child molesters are by despised by the general prison population and prison guards as well.
