A Wichita attorney known for defending Sumner County clients was himself behind bars after being charged with sex crimes. Sean Edward Shores, 33, of Wichita, was booked into the Sedgwick County Jail, Thursday, on a single charge of aggravated indecent liberties with a child under the age of 14 years old. Court documents show the girl was 12 years-old when the incident alleged to occur on Dec. 5, 2009. www.wellingtondailynews.com/features/x1332183843/Lawyer-charged-with-sex-crime |

Are lawyers now being promoted as the protectors of society against the criminal elements?
No special favors should be given based on employment and none expected.

Just trying to point out that there are scoundrels in ALL occupations. The few do not represent the whole.

And your point is that so long as the police can show that others are being charged with similar crimes, I and other have no basis for pointing out via posting the unlawful acts of the police.
That excuse appears to only work in a cops favor, not for the underprivileged.

Not at all. You read a lot of bias into others' motives because you are so biased.
My point is (for those as dense as duke) that pointing out some instances where law officers are bad apples does not mean that all police officers are bad. Only shallow, one-dimensional thinkers would believe otherwise.

You can't represent the whole of the Lawyers if one is bad in it.You can't say all the lawyers do such things at all, exceptions are always there. |

Robert, you are correct. But that is the same excuse the cops always trot out for every incident of reported abuse. It is a lot easier to avoid the lawyer that abused a child than a cop on the side of the road, or the door to your house of business.
In addition, the Lawyers union, The Bar Association, did not start a public relations blitz to blame the victim while claiming that the abuse us justified either, Like the cop's union routinely does.
