So she was working undercover this whole time?

[spameyeam]

Right? We were all so disappointed in her, but I guess she couldn’t say anything if she’s involved in arresting these fuckers.

[maybalade]

i hope this is the case. her silence was actually disturbing. i don't care about celebrities, but as an actual person with power, her not saying anything was so strange.

[meadowphoenix]

it wasn't strange, it's just that most people do not understand how legal jobs work, and that those jobs have ethical standards the lack of which can destroy a case (i do mean destroy, people have gotten cases dismissed for lack of objectivity in the deciding arbiter and the ICC is reliant on respect), and they made assumptions.

[rihaty]

It’s not disturbing, she’s a lawyer. This is her job.

[melancolour]

I think this should be a good reminder that what people say online doesn't necessarily reflect what they are doing in their life.

[espressotorte]

People need to read up on how conflicts of interest work.

[dnttllhrry]

No it wasn't.

[anterrabre]

It's literally her job not to say anything until all the ducks were in a row. Lesser cases have been dismissed due to loose lips, and this is too important.

undercover or just not posting about it on instagram

[steffi_333]

I imagine if she was she had to maintain a degree of silence over it if they've been building a case. International law is weird

[espressotorte]

International law is weird

So is every other legal case ever in this instance.

[indy788]

most people don't understand that outside celeb cases, most lawyers don't talk about their cases in public.

*puts shrine of Amal Clooney back up* WHY DID I DOUBT HER

[rihaty]

She wasn’t working undercover lol she was literally just doing her job.

[dnttllhrry]

Yes, this is why I keep my mouth shut when it comes to celebrity activism or whatever. BC the you get shit like Gal Gadot "we are the world" BS.
