Perhaps not. However, in light of the fact that he also shared this little anecdote

"We weren't about to defend a random murder by some drug dealer (regardless of who the victim was, cop or not a cop) -- but neither were we going to be put in a position of defending cops."

I think it's plausible to think that Carrol wouldn't mind defending a non-random murder by a lefty, even if there were no procedural questions about the fairness of the trial he received (much less substantive questions about the person's guilt).

Not at any venue.
