If my wife were a solicitor and she had murdered me during lockdown, and if (notwithstanding the many defences available to defence counsel) she had been convicted, I expect she would be struck off. That’s obvious, but is it right?
Would it make any difference if the murderer was one of the saintly and long-suffering associates with whom I work? Suppose the murder was by defenestration from a penthouse during a purely social event?
