I have yet to see a death case among the dozens coming to the Supreme Court on eve-of-execution stay applications in which the defendant was well represented at trial… People who are well represented at trial do not get the death penalty.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader-Ginsburg (via absurdlakefront)
I haven’t been following anything legal related for about a month now because all it does is remind me a) bar results are quickly approaching and b) i’m a cocktail waitress with a law degree BUT. This is all sorts of true. I love me some Ginsburg.
