That's a legislation thing and nowt really to with the (active) role of a defence lawyer....Often, the prosecution lawyers do their job but they (and we) are let down by weak sentencing.
Take it up the the prosecution.Wonder how many guilty as hell
Murderers
Paedos
Rapists
Drug dealers
Etc etc
Scheister lawyers have defended and managed to get set free
And knew Damn well they were guilty as charged ????
Wonder how many went on to reoffend ???
