Meet the Offenders' Defender

"...How many notorious culprits, or outright criminals..."

Meet The Offenders' Defender

Gu was authoritative, inattentive toward any counsel
Whatever he declared was to be bowed to unopposed
Citizens knew there could be no prosecutorial integrity
In the land as long he wanted to protect his cronies
How many notorious culprits, or outright criminals
Did he physically shield from prosecution or arrest?
Economists impressed on him to abstain from putting
Politics ahead of economics, particularly on issues
Of policy implementation but all those pleas were ignored
