Walter Elliott thought it important that Mickey believe in his innocence to represent him well. Was he right?

Most defense lawyers do not want to know if the client is guilty because it cuts down on their choices of what kind of defense strategy. I think Walter just wanted to brag that he was getting away with it.

I wondered at the time if he'd learned anything about the Roulett case where Mickey got a very guilty man off. All along, Walter thought he knew Mickey's heart and that was his arrogance. While Mickey wanted him to be innocent, it didn't change a thing in terms of trial strategy.
