My son confessed to a crime he didn't commit protecting people he thought where friends. Everyone is telling me that a public defender is ok. But they are not trying to hear what he has to say!!!! Basically that he is working on getting him less time. But he didn't do it!!!! Them as I was looking for a lawyer, one of the lawyers told us that they have people in custody for the crime and that there was video evidence that it was a female. I don't know where to turn, please, please, how do I help him. Who our where do I turn to. I have been looking for pro bono help. A lawyer that can accept the case while I make payments. Please can someone give me any advice????
If you are in the beginning stages he should be able to change to not guilty and the lawyer has to do what you tell them ultimately. They work for you, not vise versa.
