Seems like Pfc. English has had an epiphany about the rights of the accused, although her lawyer appears not to realize that soldiers are tried under a different legal code than civilians
Lawyers for one of the soldiers accused of abusing prisoners in Iraq said Monday they will ask a military judge to throw out her confession, because they contend military investigators pressed her to talk after she had asked for an attorney.

...

One of England's civilian lawyers, Rose Mary Zapor, said Army agents had violated England's rights by questioning her after she had asked for an attorney. Zapor said England's legal team would seek to have the confessions thrown out.

Is the world's smallest violin strung with kitten gut, do you think?

edit: did I say that [livejournal.com profile] domystic found this? Well, she did.
