Crocodile tears (or superficial sympathy) is a false, insincere display of emotion such as a hypocrite crying fake tears of grief.
I think you have been using this term incorrectly in your law fanfic. Also are you going to update that? It’s so good and I checked and it said last updated oct 2017 and I thought it said 2018 and i was so excited because I was like “yes they will update soon”
