The Brazilian Bar Association Section São Paulo (OAB-SP) has repudiated statements made by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva that criminal lawyers 'defend criminals'. Lula made the remark during an interview, stating that he hadn't hired a criminal lawyer when imprisoned in 2018 because 'a criminal lawyer does not know how to defend the innocent'. OAB-SP condemned the statement, asserting that criminal lawyers defend constitutional guarantees, due process, and the right to a fair trial. The OAB's national leadership also sought a retraction from Lula.
