Abuse Excuse
Ah, the good old abuse excuse. Blame it on anything and everything else in the universe other than your own self. And let's not forget that lawyers have a fiduciary obligation to do whatever it takes to get their client off. And then, of course, grieving families believe lies such as this one and then launch suits that really can't be proven.
