Sniper Suspect Rehires Lawyers

October 29, 2003 | Issue 39•42

Sniper suspect John Allen Muhammad stopped acting as his own attorney last week and rehired his lawyers. What do you think?

Black Man

Samuel Riegel,
Systems Analyst
"This is the only way for the sniping, serial-killer wacko to receive a fair trial. I'm sorry, alleged sniping, serial-killer wacko."

Asian Man

Jeff Campbell,
Optometrist
"His decision to represent himself might have proved as disastrously unwise as his decision to shoot all those people."

Old Woman

Leslie Meisel,
Secretary
"As long as he's found guilty, justice will have been served."

Old Man

Oliver Ralli,
Securities Agent
"I know where he's coming from. I tried to treat myself for colon cancer. But after a few months, I turned to a pro."

Young Man

David McKeel,
Dishwasher
"It's wise to hire a lawyer. I defended myself in small-claims court against a carpet-cleaning business. Result: eight years in a maximum-security penitentiary."

Young Woman

Ellen Newell,
Audiologist
"He should've had a little fun representing himself in court, before he fries like a batter-dipped cod for what he did."
