Something REALLLY wrong is going on here . . .

The title came to me prior to recognizing that it's a reflection of Al Pacino's famous bellow in ...And Justice For All. Now the irony is settling in. In any event, these two paragraphs from the Globe & Mail story: Homolka enlists 6 lawyers for case answer a question that's been floating around my house for days as we are bombarded with news reporting about ". . . Homolka's lawyer . . ."

With a brief appearance at the Joliette courthouse yesterday to begin the appeal process on her release conditions, Ms. Homolka's lawyers now number six.

Three of them are permanent legal-aid lawyers and it is possible the others are also paid by the state.

Unbelievable. Isn't she a private, free citizen now with all the rights thereto appertaining, including being screwed if she can't afford a lawyer to pursue her quest to erase all she's done?
