	Parkway Rest Stop: Johnny Cochran — Here We Go Again. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		I was out of the loop last week, so I just saw at Right We Are that Johnny Cochran has signed onto the defense of the “Sniper Case.” Cochran’s position thus far is that the defendants in the case were, in fact, victims.
		Johnny Cochran knows all this, but he banks heavily on being able to mislead a jury into believing that “circumstantial evidence” is the equivalent of bad evidence or no evidence at all.
		One particular type of “circumstantial evidence” Cochran intends to attack is the ballistic evidence that showed that the bullets taken from the victims were fired from the defendants’ rifle.

		The Johnnie Cochran frozen in my mind was riding up an escalator in a Dallas hotel four years ago, and I was trailing him to get an interview for a magazine piece on Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
		But Johnnie had it all figured out as he filed a $40 million suit against the city: He argued that Denny's civil rights were violated because the cops had deserted the predominantly fl neighborhood during the riots and thus had failed to come to Denny's rescue.
		Cochran's death at 67 on Tuesday from an inoperable brain tumor had caught a whole lot of folks by surprise.

		Cochran moot, because the injunction at issue in the case bars disgruntled former client Ulysses Tory from picketing Cochran’s law firm and from talking about Cochran forever — both activities that could continue in spite of his death.
		Cochran's lawyer, Jonathan Cole, portrayed the injunction as Cochran's only possible remedy for years of verbal abuse and attempted extortion by Tory.
		But Chemerinsky insisted that Tory had not defamed Cochran, and in any event the injunction was so broadly worded that it endangered freedom of speech in ways that other kinds of injunctions would not match.

		Johnny Cochran took the most important moral issues of the day and trivialized them with simple rhymes.
		Many fellow lawyers feel that we should sing the praises of Johnny because he was a zealous advocate working within the system who got results.
		But this kind of mixed-emotion admiration does not extend to Cochran who made his living by causing a great deal of emotional torture of the innocent and who felt that the succeeding in America's adversarial legal system was a greater moral imperative than the pursuit of justice.
