Attorney Judy Clarke, who is representing the Arizona shooter, specializes in tough, unpopular cases

According to AOL News, a list of Attorney Clarke's cases includes:

1. 9/11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui
Moussaoui is serving a life sentence at a maximum security prison in Colorado for his role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

2. "Unabomber" Theodore Kaczynski
Kaczynski is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole for his mail bombing campaign that killed three people and injured 23 others.

3. Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph
Rudolph was responsible for Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park bombing in 1996. After his five years as a fugitive, authorities caught the "Olympic Park Bomber," who is now serving multiple life sentences.

4. Susan Smith, who drowned her toddlers in 1994
Smith is serving a life sentence in South Carolina for murdering her two sons, with the possibility of parole in November 2024.

Clarke can look back on a long line of other American lawyers who took the side of the worst culprits,helping to keep secure the rights of the accused for all our sakes:
