Fighting RIAA Without an Attorney

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the go-down-swinging dept.

2think writes "Yahoo News is reporting that Patricia Santangelo of New York will be taking on the RIAA in court without an attorney. It seems that Ms. Santangelo has committed over $24,000 due to her case and simply cannot afford to continue with the services of an attorney." From the article: "Her former lawyer, Ray Beckerman, says Santangelo doesn't really need him. 'I'm sure she's going to win,' he said. 'I don't see how they could win. They have no case. They have no evidence she ever did anything. They don't know how the files appeared on her computer or who put them there.'"

    I doubt the RIAA lawyers are just nice people doing the right thing, they are just $$$ whores.

    Oh and those prosecuting lawyers that have put 100% innocent people on death row, well I doubt
    they are nice people too since hiding evidence, or faking evidence is part of their game, to win a few
    more cases, even if it kills a few innocents. Yes DNA is real to those lawyers. At least engineers
    create stuff for humanity and not deliver people to a slaughter house.
