    Honestly it's while writing this that i remembered MvK mentions having another kid who isn't Franziska or Miles. These two have a long-lost sibling somewhere out there and maybe they don't even know it haha

    Yeah from what i could gather, Jeffrey must have been around 22/23 when he adopted Katherine if we assume she was abandoned as a baby. Justine was also 21 when she adopted John... they were all so young geez. as someone in their early twenties right now I really can't imagine becoming a parent

    I definitely agree! Obviously, if Gregory had lived, then I believe Miles would have gone on to be like his dad and all that, he admired him too much to not be anything else, but here, while he respects Ray, he doesn't hold the same kind of idolisation for him and the desire to be like him, he still is disillusioned after DL-6 after seeing Hammond's methods, and it /is/ because he loves his father this much that he wants to solve the mystery of his death and make sure culprits are properly convicted, and he knows it would be easier to do so as a prosecutor (also with Ray there to reassure him that his nightmares are only just that, Miles is in a better headspace to think logically about DL-6 and all the inconsistencies).
    But also from a writer's point of view, I think it just opens up a more interesting dynamic to eventually write later than if he became a defence attorney too since everyone around him is already on that side.
