I'd like to think I'd do the same here. My job isn't worth 26 years (or one year) of someone's life. Perhaps there is a greater wrong that comes to pass if lawyers break their ethical obligations towards their clients for short term justice, however, and someone that studies ethics and law would need to weigh in on that one.

i.e. Is there a greater good served by allowing extreme injustices to happen to individuals because what someone would need to do to save them would cause even more harm? No clue.
