Examples of defense attorney in a Sentence

  1. Arnold Flores:

    Every day I saw my son through a fence ... One day, as he cried, he said 'daddy they're going to deport you,' that same day the officers called me, a defense attorney said something to me in English that I didn't understand and I haven't seen my son since.

  2. Jerry Nadler:

    The Constitution prescribes a special oath for the senators when Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer sit as a trial in impeachment. They have to pledge to do impartial justice, and here you have the majority leader of the Senate, in effect, the foreman of the jury, saying they're going to work hand and glove with the defense attorney, now, that's a violation of the oath they're about to take, and it's a complete subversion of the constitutional scheme.

  3. Tony Montoya:

    The victims in this case and their families deserve the most experienced violent crime prosecutor in court today and not a criminal defense attorney with zero experience prosecuting any crime.

  4. Eric Swalwell:

    You can be the President's defense attorney or America's Attorney General, but you can't be both, he came to this job already biased. Today, he made a show of allegiance to the President over The American people by declaring' no collusion' and excusing the President on the basis of his emotional state. He has proved that he's an embedded Donald Trump ally who puts this President's political future above of the rule of law. That makes him unfit to serve. He must resign.

  5. Timothy Parlatore:

    A lot of times you try to minimize the number of defense witnesses because as a defense attorney you don’t have the burden of proof, the prosecution does, the more of a robust case you put on, the more you cause the jury to sit there and say, ‘Did the defense prove their case?’.
