THE ACCUSED IS ENTITLED TO A DEFENSE. Jerry Giesler believed the accused is entitled to a good defense. What he delivered, consistently, was a brilliant defense. Here are some of the people he defended: Errol Flynn-charged with statutory rape on two counts; Clarence Darrow-charged with attempted bribery of a jury; Lily St. Cyr-charged with indecent exposure; Charles Chaplin-charged with violation of the Mann Act; Robert Mitchum-charged with illegal possession of narcotics. The due processes of law make fascinating reading. When the cases are charged with the legal genius of a Giesler at work, the fascination cannot be denied!
