I had obligation to defend rapist, says Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton has said she was obliged to defend an accused rapist out of professional duty when she was a lawyer in the 1970s - a case in which she was ready to discredit the 12-year-old victim.

She even intimated that she knew the accused was guilty by revealing her shock that he passed a lie detector test.

Mrs Clinton was given the case in 1975 when she ran the University of Arkansas’ legal aid clinic. The accused was Thomas Alfred Taylor, 41.

I agree she did have an obligation to defend the rapist as well as to defend him to the best of her ability. That's not the issue. The issue is her complete and utter disregard for her ethical duties by giggling gleefully to a journalist about it. The woman is as goofy as anything I've ever seen. For more of her unprofessional, silly and ridiculous behavior watch the video of when she announced Muammar Gaddafi had been murdered. The pleasure she got out of it is perverse and downright weird.

She didn't have to relish in it and victimize the victim.
