~ even attorneys go to the dark side ~

This is not the Los Angeles Police Department Ramparts scandal but heads are rolling in San Bernardino County, California where the Public Defender's Office has shown itself to be a bit lax in its hiring practices. It seems that Public Defender John Roth hired an attorney who had a criminal conviction for soliciting work from jail inmates. These are desperate times. News report here and here. [posting suggestion from R.A. Nosek Investigations]

Read what law enforcement executives say about the Ramparts area Los Angeles Police Department corruption investigation. Read and listen to the 2002 National Public Radio report.
