re: #156 Danny

Question. Why do some of the witnesses have a lawyer? I can understand why Dorian Johnson needs one but why others?

To make sure that the cops or prosecutor don’t try to twist their stories or threaten them. If its just a witness alone, telling a story the cops don’t want to hear, some dishonest cops have threatened such witnesses with trumped up charges if the witness does not fall into line. Having a lawyer with you greatly reduces the chance of that.
