This is plainly untrue; Scalia was one of the most consistent and strong advocates for defendants&#x27; rights, and often decided cases which went against his personal morality.  He was often quoted saying that the side he liked got no preferential consideration when it came to deciding a case, and if you look at the way he wrote his opinions, you will see this is true.  He would often decide in favor of people who he personally disliked and believed to be guilty of horrible things because their arguments were correct.[1][2]<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Kyllo_v._United_States" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Kyllo_v._United_States</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Florida_v._Jardines" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Florida_v._Jardines</a>
