A terrible Dog trying to be a Lawyer

He got with the DA made a deal and then turned on my son. He knew my son needed evaluation were drugs messed him up. Instead he go with DA and sent my son straight to prison. During the trial Westmoreland saw the jury looking towards them so he started tapping he head on the table. I dont know what t...o do he has even got my son's time so messed up i don't know if he will ever be back home.
