Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Decades and a Lustrum: Sunset of the Nineteenth Century
All frequenters of our law courts, and those familiar with the cost of criminal procedure and the practice pursued, are well aware that the first step of the prosecuting counsel is to prove motive, and that if the prisoner pleads guilty, he may instruct counsel to be heard in mitigation of sentence, and to plead extenuating circumstances. Qui s'excuse s'accuse.
