$6,250 isn’t realistic for retaining competent private counsel in a complex criminal case involving constitutional violations, forensic evidence, and federal-state entanglement. Most defense attorneys—especially those with the skill to handle a case like mine—require retainers well above that, often in the $10,000–$25,000 range just to begin.
I'm not refusing to hire a lawyer—I'm being priced out of justice. That’s a constitutional problem, not a personal one.
THIS IS A VIOLATION OF MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS
