Adamson's input

[edit]

The article claims that Adamson did not want to testify on his own behalf, but do we know this is true, especially with a black defendant and a presumably white defense attorney? Lawyers know the pitfalls of a defendant taking the stand - in this case Adamson had a prior criminal history. I only wonder if it is more accurate to say that Adamson's attorney knew why he should not testify and was the impetus for Adamson staying off the stand. Put another way, an attorney does not always represent the defendant or his/her/zer interests. 47.137.182.8 (talk) 09:30, 27 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
