" Who paid for the lawyer that was at the press conference?"
I am sure the lawyer in on a contingency fee. He will collect about 1/3 of any settlement granted to the victim's family. In case of no settlement, no fee. Lawyers know that does not happen too often or they would not accept the client.
The retired police captain probably will have to pay out of his pocket for a lawyer or get a public defender if he has no money. Maybe the NRA will bring in one of their lawyers - who knows?
