Why do many criminals ask lawyers to defend them just for money? Isn't this against the professional ethics of lawyers? Isn't this abetting a crime?

Lawyer's defense is to protect the basic rights of the parties, and anyone has the right to defend himself or be defended by others. This is to avoid unjust cases and protect human rights.

When we sometimes know that the other party is a criminal who may commit heinous crimes, but in order to show respect for the law and the protection of human rights, we can only restrain our reluctance and fight for legal rights for the parties, which in itself is recognition and respect for human rights and laws.

Lawyers are human beings, and they also have likes and dislikes and hate crimes, but professional ethics does not allow us to bring such likes and dislikes into our work. Please believe that most lawyers are definitely not thinking about money.

When lawyers have restrained their dislike of criminals, faithfully practiced the spirit of law, adhered to professional ethics, and defended crimes that everyone hates, I believe such lawyers deserve more respect.

Imagine when one day you are wronged for some reason, mistaken as a criminal, spurned by everyone and hated by everyone. Without any discrimination, lawyers sincerely help you, clear your grievances and help you regain people's recognition. Would you still say that at this time?
