AP - As a juvenile court judge, Mark Ciavarella Jr. routinely deprived kids of some of their most basic constitutional rights. Their right to a lawyer. Their right to understand the charges against them. Their right to a fair, impartial hearing.

We just had the great Cuyahoga County government corruption scandal here in Ohio.
The FBI nailed a ton of corrupt politicians. Frank Russo, the former Auditor, got 21 years in federal prison. They even nailed a Common Pleas Court Judge.
It caused Cuyahoga County voters to do away with the 3 Commissioner form of govt. to an elected County Executive-Council form.
According to the paper Russo stated he was proud of what he did an did it for his family. What a jerk, like his salary, which I know had to be over 100 grand a year, was not enough.
He has over 20 years of time to do now to be proud, so be it, ha!
