"My father died 20 years ago this June. Give your Dad a hug for me. My father was a Nuclear Physicist and Lawyer. He ended his career (retired to become) a public defender because he believed that EVERYONE deserved competent counsel."
@CaiStark said:
"This is the reason to become a lawyer. Not for money. Not to impress people. Do it because you know—in this case directly— that the *people* need somebody. Seriously, congratulations to your dad on getting out, and congratulations to you bc a lot of dads are still inside."
