Sanchez, the defense lawyer, had wanted her client to plead guilty. Her client, Holmes, probably wasn't guilty, but

the prosecutor was going to use so many shady tactics to

make him look guilty, Sanchez wasn't sure she could win.

With a guilty plea, Holmes would at least get a lighter

sentence. But there was no use arguing with him anymore.

Holmes had insisted. "Even if they lock me up for years," he

had said, "I will never admit to that crime." Holmes was a

difficult man to work with, but Sanchez admired his sense

of honor.

The judge banged her gavel and asked, "How do you

plead?"

Sanchez took a deep breath. "Not guilty, Your Honor," she

said. And so the trial began.
