Adan's trial lawyer was M. Gutierrez, a renowned defense attorney in Maryland- tough and savvy and smart. Other lawyers said she was exactly the kind of person you'd want defending you o a first-degree murder charge. But Adnan was convicted, and a year later, Gutierrez was disbarred. What happened?

Answer:

What probably happened is that there was irrevocable evidence that Adnam was guilty of the murder and the lawyer was unable to appeal the judge's decision, due to the true nature of the evidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

A first-degree murder is one where the murderer planned the murder, predicted and qualified a plan, where he was fully aware that the victim would be killed. Adnam caused this type of murder and evidence was presented that prevented anyone from doubting his guilt. The evidence was so true that it was impossible not to condemn Adnam for his crime, to which he is unrepentant. Because of such true evidence, Adnam's lawyer was unable to ask for the decision to be revoked, and was dismissed shortly thereafter.
