Attorney Bobby Lee Cook, seen here in his Summerville office in 1984, represented hundreds of accused murderers over his career, which began in the late 1940s. His clever maneuvers in court, combined with a gentlemanly charm, made him perhaps Georgia's most famous attorney and may have inspired a classic television character.
