Aim to Maim,

There is no way in hell I would work for the DA's office or the US Attorney's office. It is hard enough not to jump across the bench and strangle the Judge when he/she lets my clients off on the limited amount of criminal work I do and he/she is actually doing what I am asking him/her to do. Could you imagine if I were on the other side and the Judges were letting criminal after criminal off with light sentences? I would go insane.

There is one older Judge in my jurisdiction that I hate to go in front of, and that is because he rarely cuts anybody any slack. He doesn't give probation before judgment on traffic matters unless there is a really good reason. Meanwhile, the other Judges give out PBJ's like they are candy.

About the only way I could get involved in the criminal arena to an extent greater than what I do right now, would be to join the FBI, at which point my wife would kill me, or to become a Judge myself. I haven't yet ruled out the Judgeship, but only time will tell with that one. Maybe, just maybe, ten years down the road when I am 46ish, I'll try it, but who knows.
