The Hanging Judge of California (formerly titled Perfect Justice) probes outrageous decisions by the US Federal 9th Circuit Court in overturning death penalties. California Judge Donald A. McCartin, who sent nine men to death row, speaks out in fury when convicted child-killer Rodney Alcala's verdict was overturned after twenty-three years. The book chronicles Alcala's crimes and trials as well as the horrific murders committed by eight other killers who were sentenced by McCartin. The judge, called "Solomon with the sense of humor of Roy Bean reincarnated," provides a glimpse into his personal memoirs with a caustic insight into the appeals process and his encounters with rich and famous personalities. A must read for true-crime fans and those interested in the convoluted system of the appeals courts.
