The Trial of Linda Carty

Whether Linda Carty is innocent or not, this trial was an absolute fucking disaster. As a criminal defense lawyer, having someone who's a foreign national is kind of like an ace in your sleeve because you can send the best lawyers they have to help you. And it's not helped by the fact that Robinson, Williams and Anderson were originally charged with capital murder and themselves at risk of the death penalty. They were given a plea deal offering them prison sentences rather than the death penalty if they testified against Linda Carty. All three admitted to their part in the break-in, but equally they said they had been set up by Linda.
