Myles is a real sack of shit that seeks high profile cases. Everyone, regardless of how heinous their crime, deserves good representation and due process. But the purpose of defense is not to get guilty clients off on technicalities or public sympathy, it’s to make sure they receive a fair trial and that the legal consequences fit the crime. Getting you ass-whipped by a crowd stopping you in the act and the public being disgusted with you as a human being are extra legal consequences that inevitably occur when you commit a crime and have no bearing on your defense or eventual sentence.
Myles also takes on cases of Proud Boys and crooked cops/prosecutors, so he’s got a type.
“Honolulu-based defense attorney Myles Briener has gained recognition in Hawaii for taking on high-profile clients and cases in recent years. In 2021, Breiner represented Nicholas Ochs, the founder of Hawaii’s Proud Boys chapter who landed in court in 2021 after his participation in the violence that took place at the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021. Breiner also represented Louis and Katherine Kealoha, a former police chief and deputy prosecutor in Honolulu who were indicted for bank fraud, aggravated identity theft, and drug charges in 2017.”
