From Judge to Defendant: Crimes and Notorious Abuses of Power by Judges
In most cases, judges represent the best and brightest of the legal profession. Yet, there are a few who experienced spectacular falls from grace. In this entertaining program, Andrew Struve chronicles the rise and fall of several infamous judges – ranging from Sol Watchler to Walter Nixon to Harry Claiborne – and discusses how their conduct ran afoul of the law and the ethics rules. The program materials include an ethical violation scorecard so can play along as we catalog the ethics violations committed by this rogues gallery of former judges.
