San Francisco, plea bargain "What you're seeing is a plea bargain. The defendant is obviously not very happy. Some people would refer to this look as the mad dog look - that is what is referred to on the streets. The look of a mad dog just before they jump. Some would describe her look as a look of frustration, resignation. But I would suggest these are probably all common human feelings when someone's going to plead guilty and by their plea of guilty put themselves in jail. It's a common look. Rarely is it a situation where anybody is happy when they're in the criminal justice system and certainly in the court room." DI, Public Defender "Every fucking person you drive by on the street looks at you like that for no other reason than you being a cop. Everyone hates the police ... look at you like you're a piece of shit." BR, Police Officer
