At the first trial, the defendant's defense lawyer once said in court that Xu surrendered himself and pleaded guilty, and he could be given a lighter punishment. It was found through trial by the court that Xu did not surrender and suggested that it should not be adopted. However, during the trial, the defendant did confess and plead guilty, which can be dealt with lightly or leniently according to relevant laws. Netizens are dissatisfied with the defense opinions put forward by lawyers in the first instance.
When the reporter found Xu's defense lawyer, Li Songping, and talked about his views on lawyers on the Internet, Li Songping bluntly said that he was just a lawyer entrusted by Xu, just doing what a defense lawyer should do in the first instance. As for the second trial, Li Songping is no longer Xu's defense lawyer. How to deal with it or how to deal with it is just a very common case. Indeed, as a lawyer, it is necessary for him to defend his client dutifully when accepting the entrustment. This is his professional ethics, and netizens don't need to judge this person's moral level according to his profession and speech.
Lawyer Li Songping only did what he should do as a lawyer during his tenure, and the final punishment of the case mainly depends on the people's court. There is nothing wrong with him being loyal to his profession and Ye being loyal to his customers. I hope netizens can understand the profession of lawyers and give enough respect to their work. Don't disturb the lawyer's life when the case is brought to justice.
