Prison will be waiting on him. he will not be smiling either.

Look at the expression on this guy's face. He doesn't seem to be to worried about the murder charge he's facing.

WHY WHY WHY ARE WE WASTING TAX PAYER MONEY, TIME AND EFFORTS ALLOWING THIS MAN TO GET YET A THIRD ATTORNEY. ADDING TO THE ECONOMIC CRISIS THIS COUNTRY IS IN, WHY TO GO RALEIGH!

In my experience, a "Court appointed lawyer" cant even get you out of a seatbelt violation.

I don't know what he expects by replacing his third court appointed attorney.. clearly he cant afford a good defense.

Another feral person working the system. I think I'd feel a lot better if this dude faced the death penalty. The article doesn't say.

Set a trial date (and make it soon) and get on with it. He wants another attorney the day before trial, go ahead. Just no postponement and no chance to use that as grounds for appeal.

Find the deepest darkest cell in the prison system. Open the door, throw loser in, close cell, throw away key!! There, just saved the tax payers plenty of money. Then have the trial on closed circuit TV so he doesn't have to move from there!!

Take both of them out back and put a bullet in their heads.....save the tax payers some money and take out the trash at the same time.

My post was never posted but he wants a black attorney from Durham.

Sounds like this Hayes knows how to work the system. I am all for legal representation for all but this is carrying things a little to far. Hopefully the third strike will all this guy will be allowed.
