The San Luis Obispo County District Attorney puts out sensationalized press releases after securing convictions. In this case the press release implied that Addison's client and one of his co-defendants had been convicted as charged, when in fact the trial outcome was a tremendous victory for Addison's client and one of his c0-defendants. They had both been saved from the possibility of spending the rest of their lives in prison. Addison client, even if given the maximum sentence for the less serious charges for which he was convicted, is now only subject to a few more years of incarceration, which is of course a far cry from the possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison. A legal intern at Steele & Voss created this more truthful announcement.

He earned it for 'solid legal work and an uncompromising concern for clients,' the organization said.

'The way I look at the case is, I only keep my client off the stand if I have to. That is very different,' he said in a telephone interview. He teaches other attorneys his methods.

Steele's 'ability to enable the community--the jury--to see the client as a human being, to see the client through his eyes, is amazing,' said Assistant Public Defender Robert Willey."
