Rep. James Fagan, a Taunton criminal defense attorney, recently argued on the House floor against Jessica's Law, a measure that would set mandatory minimum sentences for child rapists.
"Let me tell you why it's so wrong," said Fagan (D-Taunton). "It's so wrong because in these situations . . . that 6-year-old is going to sit in front of me, or somebody far worse than me and I'm going to rip them apart. I'm going to make sure that the rest of their life is ruined. That when they're 8 years old they throw up; when they're 12 years old, they won't sleep. When they're 19 years old they'll have nightmares and they'll never have a relationship with anybody. And that's not because I'm a nice guy. That's because when you're in court, and you're defending somebody's liberty, and you're facing a mandatory sentence of those draconian proportions, you have to do every single thing you can do on behalf of your client. That is your obligation as a trial lawyer."

No, thats because he is a jew lover and will do anything, and say anything for some of the 30 billion a year the jews who control the 10x10 mile homosexual paradise district of columbia ship to irseal and then back to pay scumbag lawyers like this to destroy all non jews
Why doesnt jo liberman investigate the jew like he wants to investigate the fort hood shootings? dont you think the jew hate all non jews and wants to murder all non jews for its god of the talmud?
James Fagan , and ALL the faggots, bastards , whores, and child molesting ABOMINATIONS he "defends" should be tortured slowly and PAINFULLY for their crimes, until they beg for DEATH!!! This is about DEFENDING OUR CHILDREN, Fagan, NOT about defending your bread and butter. OUR children, OUR FAMILIES shouldn't have to suffer any further damage from your goddamned jailbait budies just because YOU want to mke it look like your doing your GODDAMNED job, You PATHETIC SACK OF SHIT.
Umm...did you just say, "...your people want to put Bush and Cheney on trial for war crimes when they haven't even been proven guilty"?
Well, isn't proving someone guilty (or not guilty) the purpose of a trial? In fact, how do you propose to prove anyone guilty without a trial?
I'm not saying that the former President and Vice President are or are not guilty of war crimes or anything else. I'm just saying that you probably shouldn't be pursuing a law degree anytime soon. :-P
I'm a bit sick by this man's words, but I'm also repulsed that ignorant conservatives are using him as a strawman to represent all democrats. Just as you can't judge a country by the extremists that get on the news, you can't judge a party by this idiot. Like everyone has said, he's speaking out as an attorney as well.
Novel idea..dump the Dems and the Repubs..so we can have some real representation. There is nothing going on to be laughing about..they are all guilty.
bush and cheney don't' need a trial. the thousands they've killed for no reason other than their whim is well documented. i am defending 'accused" child molesters. big difference pal.
