HOW THE COURTS AND LEGISLATURE PROTECT PROSECUTORS FROM ACCOUNTABILITY FOR VIOLATION OF LAWS, ETHICAL RULES & CITIZEN?S RIGHTS  - By Judge Stan Billingsley (Ret.)

• ?This book provides a much needed and long overdue resource for every real criminal defense lawyer in Kentucky. Buy it, order extra copies for your fellow warriors at the defense bar, read it, cite it and use it in every case where you are called upon to act to defend your client?

• Judge Stan Billingsley?s treatise on Prosecutorial Accountability provides a thoughtful insight and historic background for discussing the creation of a Prosecutors? Conduct Review Commission in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. I applaud his efforts.

• The issues the judge discusses are of particular importance to the Commonwealth of Kentucky? Personally, if a case is reversed on the basis of prosecutor misconduct I would have the prosecutor pay the cost of the defense when he commits prosecutor misconduct from his personal checking account and preclude reimbursement from his employer. 

• This book is a call to action for prosecutors who have the will to do better; a call to action for defense attorneys to aggressively and thoroughly represent their clients; and a call to action for all of us to hold accountable those prosecutors who lack the will to do justice. I think this book should be required reading for all defense attorneys.
