Browne is also known for his diligence in representing his clients and his flair for television cameras.
He helped next to a lawyer for Bundy, Benjamin Ng avoiding the death penalty after his condemnation in Washington State the worst mass killing, the massacre of 13 people in a restaurant in Seattle.
