Lawyer Tang Shanzhi was hacked by the Internet, and all 500,000 fees were refunded. Can't he defend others?

First of all, I can tell you for sure that no matter the victim or the criminal suspect, according to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, anyone can hire a lawyer, even if he is facing the death penalty. Moreover, when the circumstances of the crime are serious, if the suspect does not hire a lawyer himself, the procuratorate and the court will also notify the legal aid institution to send a lawyer for the suspect. This is the spirit of a society ruled by law. Although the suspect is unforgivable, everyone hates him, especially Tangshan's own beating. Chen Mou Zhi and others beat women badly and should be severely punished. But no matter how serious Chen Mou's crime is, he has the right to hire a lawyer. As for whether lawyers are willing to defend them, it is hard to say. In this incident of beating people in Tangshan, I think there are three reasons why the lawyer finally gave up defending Zhi.

First, the pressure is great. This beating incident in Tangshan has a very bad influence and a very wide range of influence. Any detail may cause great repercussions. If the lawyer defends Chi, if he makes some favorable defense, he will certainly face great pressure. By then, he will not only face the pressure of online public opinion, but even his offline life and family may be affected. He may not even dare to go out. He can only stay at home all day, and may even face a nervous breakdown, which is not worth the candle.

Second, I am afraid of ruining my reputation. Reputation is very important to lawyers. If the reputation is good, many people will come to you, and the income of customers will naturally increase. On the contrary, if a lawyer easily accepts the case of Zhi and tarnishes his reputation, although he may accept some similar cases in the future and get some income, on the whole, this income is not worth the candle compared with normal cases. Once his reputation is defiled, many people will not look for him. After all, the client will face great pressure to find such a lawyer with black material.

Third, defending Chen Mou's ambition will not win many victories. Chen Mou's intellectual incident had a very bad influence, and heavy punishment was definitely indispensable. Now he can only try his best to reduce the punishment by hiring a lawyer. However, the incident of zhi being beaten has a bad influence. Besides, he has committed some criminal cases in the past few years. As a "fugitive from criminal detention", he is a recidivist and will face more serious punishment. Although the victim's injury is only judged as minor injury at present, which may be beneficial to the sentencing of Zhi, Zhi may face other criminal responsibilities besides the beating incident, and may even involve triad activities, and the criminal responsibility will be more serious at that time. Besides, this incident has a very bad influence, and any judgment will not be hasty, and it will certainly withstand the scrutiny of netizens all over the country, so even if lawyers defend Chen Mou's record, it will not have much effect. I think lawyers are also aware of this problem, so it is completely understandable that some lawyers would rather give up 500 thousand yuan than defend Zhi.
