[QUOTE="DDD, post: 436262, member: 35"] I just remember something else that I wanted to share. Jose Baez has been criticized for his "rough edges" among other things. I watched a lengthly interview that featured his background. Guess what? He was a difficult child who dropped out of school in either 7th or 9th grade..I think 7th. Asked why? he simply said "I was a messed up kid". When he was 17 years old he found out his girlfriend was pg and decided to "man up". He joined the service (Navy, I think) and "grew up" so he could support his child. Once out of the service he applied for college and was accepted. When he graduated he still didn't know what he wanted to do but he was dating a girl who was going on to Law School so he decided to do the same. Upon graduation he was offered a job with the State's Attorneys office, accepted the position, and within less than a month realized he didn't like law with-o personal interaction. He quit and walked accross the street and asked for a job with the Public Defenders's office. Once there he knew that was how he wanted to practice law. His goal is to eventually be able to focus on Pro Bono work. I found it very interesting. It sure is proof that a difficult child can turn it around. DDD [/QUOTE]
