I thought maybe it might be some well known defense attorney looking to defend this guy but instead we have U.S. Federal Public Defender Office there clamoring to be appointed his attorney by a judge.
Sure he needs an attorney, may a judge have had to appoint him an attorney at a hearing and it be a public defender, maybe but why the rush?
BOSTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Public Defender Office in Boston is seeking to be appointed to represent Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings.
The office commonly defends individuals who cannot afford their own attorneys in criminal cases. An official there, Charles McGinty, said its attorneys have not spoken to Tsarnaev and will have to be appointed to represent him by a federal judge. "That's why we're trying to advance the appointment to be as soon as possible," he said.
