    The article said he was reluctant to come forward because the guys offering the bribe were also clients of his. Sounds pretty shady all around.

      It certainly sounds shady. I missed that part of the article. I can see where he might have hesitated to come forward if he were likely to lose clients as a consequence.
      The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

      I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick Douglas

          Not likely. confidentiality only covers an attorney client relationship in the confines of a case. If a client asks the lawyer to do something illegal, especially unrelated to a case, the lawyer has an ethical responsibility to report it. Offering a lawyer a bribe would probably fall under needing to report it.
