I share your distaste of lawyers, but please consider this: How do you feel about prison doctors who provide medical services to child murderers? Does everybody deserve medical care, as your lawyer friend thinks everybody deserves legal representation? Should the prison doctor feel any guilt for helping such horrible people?

You've specifically mentioned the topic I intentionally avoided discussing, because of the sensitive nature, but:

My genuine hope would be the other prisoners would be more successful in avoiding the need for any professional services rendered [read this as a survivor, which I am].

You cannot cure these abusers here on Earth — you have to send them somewhere else.
