It is part of the Hyde Amendment, check it out.

Player, you should know this.

read between the lines - think about the costs to retain a lawyer on the level thats being spoken about here. any lawyer on that level sure as fuck isnt going to represent you if you dont have the money unless the lawyer knows they can find you not guilty and even then, most say fuck you if you dont have the cash - the average person doesnt have that kind of money and is left with most times a subpar attorney and they lose your case. dont see too many people with serious money going to jail.

you get what you pay for.

add to that the stress thats invloved with just dealing with the situation and its effect on family friends work ect sure as fuck turns your world upside down.
