I'm not sure if i want to tackle this one.
O'Reilly can really be an ass at times. Sometimes he brings up valid points, but other times he's just an ass. I really can't stand watching him.

I'm not that familiar with the case, and i'm not that familiar with exactly what part of the Consitution he's applying here (5th amendment? like I said, haven't been following closely).

Lawyers, like Doctors, have specific ethics that they are supposed to follow. When you're a defense attorney (which i will never be! it takes a very particular kind of person to do that), a lot of times your professional responsibilities come into conflict with your moral responsibilities. That's why being a defense attorney is such a hard job. You can be disbarred for not following your professional duties. The public harasses you for not following your moral responsibilities.

I'm not established enough in the law to argue much morem though. Those are just my initial thoughts.
